We were based at Robin Hoods Bay (near Whitby) and the roads across the moors are delicious. I probably did more overtakes (some good, some not) in the last 2 weeks than I've done all year. At home in Bristol, even the potentially good rural roads seem to be increasinsingly restricted to 50 or even 40.
For those going on the Whitby drive - enjoy yourselves!

It's always a bonus when a politician who campaigns vociferously for a speed limit gets caught!![]()
Talking of politicians, when the IAM launched its Drive Check this year with free invites given to politicians. I know that up here the uptake has been really poor, and inparticular of two local groups who only got responses from politicians who didn't drive!
What does that tell you?
