Sunday ride

Went for a ride with some guys who I work with this morning to Hunstanton, Norfolk and have to say how surprised I was to see lots of considerate car drivers moving over to left to allow us all to pass!!

Not seen this amount of cars doing this before, normally get the odd one or two drivers who actually know whats going on around them and not just the 10 meters in front of them but this was something special

We also rode along a stretch of road I've never done before, nice tarmac and about 10 or 11 sweeping bends (over 45º turn) in the space of about half a mile. Pure joy!!

I had something similar happen to me today. I was filtering between the stationary lanes of traffic on the A12 and everyone was parting like the sea for Moses.

I think it may have had something to do with the Ambulance with it's blues and twos going that I caught up to!

Anyway, he was in my way so once past him I still found the cars mysteriously cooperative today
