(Wouldn't have happened with the car I drive )
Enjoy it while you can. It'll have a 50 limit on it before much longer. I think the only reason there are no fixed cameras is that there's no mains electricity supply along the road.
Incidentally I bombed down it earlier in the summer at 5PM; nothing around, I was doing 90... in the van!

Silly though isn't it. Limit is 60mph anyway, so 10mph shaved off won't really make it any less enjoyable as chances are you are already cough, exceeding the posted limit, cough Incidentally I bombed down it earlier in the summer at 5PM; nothing around, I was doing 90... in the van!
