came past tonbridge bit of a21 at about 185 mph last year so it should be quite interesting!!!

Ahhh, so you're one of those young whippersnappers who come roaring past my backdoor

Actually that is rather "quick"

AND LOOK OUT FOR THAT DAMN TRUEVELO CAMERA

[sean]

used to go past it every day as fast as i could giving the one fingered wave untill i shot past it at well over 100mph and thank god someone flashed me coming the other way. the scamera tax collectors had obviously taken exception and set up a mobile cash point just over the brow of the hill. took it a bit slower just there after that!!!

Von Short Hausen where are you in tonbridge? i used to live in st marys road and spent many legless nights/weekends in the foresters arms pub!!!

[Von Short Hausen]

I'm up near West Kent College (off Brook St)

Not too good with Tonbridge pubs. I don't get to do much drinking nowadays - my employers have a 'Zero Tolerance' scheme towards alcohol (and I don't want to caught by their Weewee Police )

man it must be mind numbing sitting in that train all day

[Von Short Hausen]

Believe it or not..it isn't. Our trains are so cr*p that everyday brings a new challenge, and a major plus point is that I can tank along at 100 without getting nicked, and I don't have taxis or busses pulling out in front of me.

100 without getting nicked

i want a job that allows me to do that
