Firstly plead not guilty to impersonating a police officer. You have not dressed in a police uniform nor told anyone you are a police officer. I have seen your bike, (it's ex police); Before police bikes can be sold to the general public they have to be de/policed, (sirens,lights,police emblems etc etc) As to dayglo jackets (even with instructor on them) so what ? Highway code rule 86 states 'make yourself as visible as possible from the side as well as the front and rear. So in a nutshell there you are. As I have marshaled these events I find it hard to believe the police would react in such a manner. Regards, mitch.

Dear Bikers On behalf of everyone at The Salvation Army Central North Division may I say a very sincere word of thanks to all who participated in the 2009 Toy Run Appeal. It was a magnificent display of around 600 bikers arriving at the Trafford Centre with your generous gifts of toys and financial donations enabling children across the region to have a happier Christmas. The toys are currently being allocated to many Salvation Army centres across the North West and the total monies raised to date is in the region of £3,000. Our heartfelt thanks to all who made the day possible and successful. Kind regards and may your own Christmas be happy and peaceful. Yvonne Field email received from the Salvation Army….
