A rolling Bedfordshire mini meet

Mike · 10th July 2007, 21:11

Jon and I popped over to St Neots to pick up some gear for my car this evening which counts as a mini meet

Mind you on the way back I couldn't keep up with him. Once we got to 100 indicated on the Bedford by pass I had to give up. I had heard about 190 pilots but didn't realise just how extreme they can get. All safe for me though, I just kept behind him

Are all 190 drivers like that?

(ps the guy leaning on R40 is who we got the bits off)

I thought they had started sticking cameras down there, they have on the Leighton Buzzard by Pass further across.
You say about 190 drivers, what about R75 drivers taking pictures at 100MPH? LOL.
Sorry Mike couldn't resist.

lol @ John. don't know what you are talking of

That Leighton Buzzard bypass(5 mins from me) is a nightmare - used as a racetrack by chavs so happy to see the 50mph cameras/

Cheers to Jon btw. Couldn't have done it without you mate

Agree re the Leighton bypass and chavs; they're everywhere.

I don't recall those kind of speeds on the way home, Mike, R40s obviously got a dodgy speedo.

Happy to have helped; shame about the bloke in the picture etching a rude word on your roof.
