(Slightly O.T.)
A year ago,me & a mate were on a night ride,& on a road section on the way back after a couple or three mid ride pints we approached one of those smiley/sad face “Your Speed” signs.
We were say 50 to 75 metres off it when it lit up & showed our speed as 17mph(Complete with smiley face)….cue rapid gear upshifts & pedalling like **** out of the saddles…..
Only for us to show a max of 26mph(Still smiley..!)as we passed it.
The aim for the next ride a week later was to crack the 30 limit & earn a “Sad face”.
Anyway,the following week,coming onto the straight,already having wound the speed up,big ring small cog,thighs burning….we achieved…….
No idea…the sign had gone!!
FFS!!
