I agreed and 15 minutes later this (cock ) who would later become a multiple British and European sports bike champion showed up , looking me over in a condescending manner .
so the start / finish point was agreed and it was agreed that no suicidal riding would take place but that rule was soon forgotten by the (cock ) when he realised he was never going to beat me and despite him passing me in a suicidal fashion repeatedly after I had safely passed him , I still won .
