Way back in the latter stages of 2011 we were invited along to document this country’s team competing in the Dakar Rally last month, Jan 2012. This procession started in Twickenham and ended at Canary Wharf and although a little bit lastminute.com there were plenty of bikes involved so it was quite a procession.

That makes way to an incredible fraud by the operators, who already charge an arm & leg for their motorways, particularly for motorcycles. The last thing they need is an increase in tolls, since they are making filthy profits on roads that were paid for by tax payers.
