Title: out & about with my dashcam again
Post by: 78bex on 30 May 2012, 21:57:29

Out & about with my dash cam again......a nice old Jag ( sadly broken down)
Give the brakes a good workout, as I avoid a lemming on 2 wheels

Given the uncivilised world that we now live in, it was refreshing to see the exchange of words kept polite.  :y

I could quite easily of banned (at minimum) the group of lycra'd louts I saw the other day. A whole boat load of them taking up as much road as they could ................. f*** the rest of the traffic!  >:( >:(

.. as should most drivers, based on my experience of using pedal power regularly for the last week or two (yes, I'm on a fitness campaign. No, not in Lycra). ;)

Hi guys appreciate the comments
The old girl stopped pretty damn quickly & let me steer away under control.
 I only realised following this that  she has a brake to idle system.
Not sure if I want another emergency stop in hurry following that one!
