Mrs Viking and I were into cycling up to about 4 years ago and want to get back in the saddle. The litle vikings were as well. One of our greatest bits of enjoyment apart from cycling to Germany and back along with other long distance rides was to go out on our tandem and make the speed camera flash near to where we lived. Little viking number 1 son would fly down the hill on his mountain bike and get the speed camera to flash on his own. Mrs V and I would do this on the flat, often getting up to about 45 mph. I remember number 1 son and I going downhill on a tandem in Wales at 65mph....very scary !!! But it had a drag brake fited as well.We did stop before the hard left hand bend. I remember riding down hill in Holland with little miss viking aged 7 on a trailer bike at nearly 50 and her squeeling with delight feet off her peddles feeling the wind. Mind you it took to curses and threats of making her walk up the hill to get her to assist peddling up to the top of the hill. I've been on me arse, me back and rolled into the gravel. Keep on the bike !!

Dave. The police have to identify you and if they can then you can be charged with speeding and if found guilty and you have a driving licence you get points on it as well as a fine. If you don't have a driving licence you don't get points.......sticks eh !! You can be done for being drunk in charge of a bicycle as well as any other moving traffic offence. We were always non identifiable when we set out to get the camera to flash. (This is not an admission of guilt, just in case there are realy boring people reading this)
