Hey Baron, I think I rode with you a bit this morning. If you were wondering who was on the SM-R checking out your bike, it was me (if it was indeed you).

The Doo-kard-ee vid is ace, I loved the micro bike bits. I think there was an original upload where the obvious piss taking bits were not micro-biked.

A now edited version minus all the actual wheelying and massive speeding.

Mind you going on what was discussed last week looks like some of his bike / body strayed over the double whites.....

Sounds good though.

I missed the original last week, but the edits where very funny.

I wish the mic gave you a true value of the sound of bike!

I'm not surprised he edited it!

A good vid, and the fly bys helped you hear the noise better.

As an aside, lots of crossing of the hatching. Is this a grey area? I thought you were only allowed to cross hatchings for a reason, not just to over take?

You're not allowed to cross solid white lines.

You're allowed to cross broken white lines.

If there's an area of cross-hatching surrounded by solid white lines, you can't cross it.

He also does a bit of an overtake in a turn-right lane - I've a friend who got pulled over and given a fairly hefty talking to for doing that (and a £300, two-day riding course that Essex traffic police were doing at the time).

Enjoyed that, shame I missed the original cut! Can see what he means about his camera not picking up the sound very well, the external stuff is cloud9

The guy on the monster who saw the micro get hit by the 1 series appears to have a baron sticker on his lid? Is this a random chap or his mate?

Over taking is a reason!

Jeezo I was merely curious, as BVG edited the video once so as not to incriminate himself. I'm sure we'd all agree that we wouldn't want him to fall foul of the law and stop making videos.

Quite vague it seems too:

[i]130
Areas of white diagonal stripes or chevrons painted on the road. These are to separate traffic lanes or to protect traffic turning right.

If the area is bordered by a broken white line, you should not enter the area unless it is necessary and you can see that it is safe to do so.
If the area is marked with chevrons and bordered by solid white lines you MUST NOT enter it except in an emergency.
Laws MT(E&W)R regs 5, 9, 10 & 16, MT(S)R regs 4, 8, 9 & 14, RTA sect 36 & TSRGD 10(1)
[/i]

My concern would be that if something did happen, you'd be to blame as you crossed hatchings when it was "necessary" to do so.

Couple of new vids up.

I can only assume someone is holding a gun to his head and he is being forced to say nice things about that absolutely hidious KTM he's been given. If it was me, I really would probably say no thanks...but then, I guess if he's good and he get's to keep it he can always sell it afterwards...

The front end is a bit of a dogs dinner but I do like the colouring and the luggage doesn't look out of place on it so good luck to him and if he does win it you never know that after he has had his fun and got bored with it he may do a nice turn and donate it to someone like SERV/blood runners/bike charity
