This post is not for people to give me their opinions on whether I shoud or should not be doing this. Its not about cars. Its not a rant. Its a fact only post please.
Right I went past a speed camera today, which I have made a cycling ambition to set off, nearly crashing into the back of a van who had slowed down for it and still couldn't set it off. I was going quick! As I say I nearly ended up mating with a van who was going considerably slower than me yet probably just less than or exactly 30mph. I slowed down after the speed trap btw.
Can bikes just not set these things off or something? I didn't have a computer so I cant say exactly how fast I was going but I know I was doing more than 30mph from experience.
Is the lack of metal causing a problem? How fast do you have to go to set one off. Surely a motorbike will set one off and there isn't a great deal on one of them either. Should I try a bit of tinfoil on the back?
I have never managed it in a car either but that is by design!
