    I guess they will be using unmarked bikes/cars too? They were using them in D&G the last time I was up there.

    Why would you speed on the NC500?

    On certain parts it would take a lot of self control as the roads are so good!

    So are the accident statistics such as to require this extra police effort ?

    So the speed kings have finally got to the extreme end of the country. No surprise really, as they have killed north Wales and most of the good riding roads in England. Very soon there will be nowhere to ride your bike without risk of a speeding ticket or ban.

    A very pessimistic view, surely all the roads can be enjoyed without risk of a ban or speeding ticket, just stick to the speed limits!!
