It would seem that this sign has appeared at our local kneedown haunt, Maple Cross! Laughing

Hope my off didn't persuade them to erect this... Embarassed

Its OK, it doesn't mean no kneedowns, it means beware of bikers with their knee down. If it were a No Kneedown sign it would be a circular one.
Round ones give orders, and triangular ones are warnings so it is a sign working on your behalf to warn other drivers that you are playing Thumbs Up Very Happy

I think it is kinda cool that they have done it tho.. it means that they are aware that there are other vehicles on the road apart from cars, vans and lorries!!

I say this is one up for us bikers! Laughing Thumbs Up

You know the "Think Bike", and "To Die For?" Signs?

Annabella and I saw some on the way out to Bishops Castle a couple weeks ago, with a picture of a biker with his knee down, and the words "Think Ahead" or something. Was class! Thumbs Up

So, everyone should be looking for these signs to point out good places to get your knee down!

Class.

Photoshopped - I'm almost certain.

How many members of the public would be able to distinguish what is in that sign? It's a big blob. Signs are clear and concise, there is a uniform sign used for a motorcycle, and that isn't it.
