It's like an IAM rideout - especially the picking people out of the hedge bit.

I was just talking the Sean about the amount of green badge wearers I have had ride through hedges in the past.

Nice find.
I'd be more worried about the Defence School of Transport at Leconfield if I were you.

Mind you, I've never seen any army types making holes in walls round there. But two summers ago I saw a very guilty looking pair who'd just put an army lorry through the wall on the downhill bit of the B6161 (Oaker Bank) just past the College.

They weren't looking too happy as they waited for someone to come and pull them back out...
Thats cos they knew even if they weren't put on a charge for the accident the REME recovery mechs would bill em a crate for pulling them out.

Superb!
Many years ago I briefly had a BSA M21 ex army shed and I'm now feeling a warm wave of nostalgia. (at least I hope that's what it is)

Thanks

No idea. You can try it the first time you find something worth posting.

You don't have to live very close to encounter them out on the road. Anywhere in Hull is likely and they hunt in packs.
