Today's Motorcycling Lesson

One of the lovely things about the Vmax's acceleration is that it does let you dive out into small gaps in traffic in a manner that can only be described as cheeky[1]. Usually entertaining because by the time the cager has found the lights and horn, you've already fucked off over the county line.

Anyway, today I found that a swift glance at the trip meter before doing this is a wise precaution. If it's reading anywhere near 80, then <Harry Enfield Mode> 'You don't want to do that' </HEM>. Fortunately the reserve switch is nice and accessible.

*Cough*

Sorry, Mr Sierraman, I didn't do it deliberately, and I've learned my lesson...


[1] Yes, yes, neither big nor clever, but 'the bike makes me do it'.
