Was driving the car as I had some shopping to do, when some bikes loom up behind me. So I decided to have some fun. Drop a couple of gears and floor it. Bikes stuck right there with me even when we had to slow down for other traffic.

I know they could have passed me anytime they wanted. But I think they wanted to have some fun. Thumbs up as they passed. They must have liked it so much that when they got to that short stretch between round abouts they turned around and did a wheelie for me.

Thanks guys (if you are reading this)

So when you are out there on two wheels ther are some TVRs that want to have some fun, so go for it!

Another Kawasaki/TVR owner here. ZRX1100C4 and Griffith 500.

If the roads are clear, I'll often have a blat with bikes if I'm in the Griff. I find that bikers and TVR drivers have much in common. I'm not at all surprised at the numbet of TVR owners that either are still, or have been Bikers.

Honda600 and Chim400 owner.
I love having fun with bikes and TVR's (there was a 911 owner that was playful also) and i think that they are the same. Missus hates it though and keeps telling my to slow down (don't think she understands).
Normally give the thumbs up as either i or they turn off.

I have had many runs with bikes, including on sunday on the 505, most want to have some fun, some push it a little harder and closer than they should but I've never had an issue ...

I go to every round of the BSB in the countyr except Knockhill and Mondello, and therefore get plenty of opportunities

Various car driver and soon to be 999 rider also.

I have to admit I do have some fun in the car, but don't push it too much. I don't know how good the rider is and don't know how I feel it I pushed them that little bit too much and they had an off...

I had a small play with a private plate TVR a few weeks back, a very nice fancy yellow colour Tuscan V50 TVR or simular.

He caught me on the hop, but we both played safe at 120.

Surely what both machines are for ?
