I've mentioned in this thread or another, that when training I would avoid the Alton are and south. Ironically, that have been several nasty bike crashes around that area - so very possibly riders crashing on roads they 'know'crust wrote: Thu Jul 09, 2020 9:11 am It doesn't help that riders are like sheep ... In the south along the A272 the local councils are lobbying hard for more Police action, noise cameras, they are well aware the worst offenders are after market cans and are demanding action against modifications.
And riders in the area (particularly on a Wednesday evening, where the highlight was the Alton station cafe) would complain when their bikes were checked over and found to be illegal. Well, durr . . . [Plod did have an interesting system working at one time: stroll around the parked-up bikes, note obvious points like small plates, then radio that info ahead and pull in just those bikes. Better than the Welsh 'corral everyone' approach]
