They're actually starting to put surveillance in just for us? This is bad sign.

Our only hope is its bollocks, it is MCN after all...

I`m sure some self righteous c*nt will be along shortly to tell us we only need to worry if we have something to hide .

Orwell was so right!

Argh, bollocks.

Blame Wycombe Mag's facebook page!

I saw they had posted it and just assumed it would be recent.

My bad, still, something to watch out for!

The roads of Derbyshire have 99 problems but speed aint one of them.

I was there at the weekend and the place is like a gigantic, slowly moving carpark. I wasn't even making progress on the Enfield.

Speeding anywhere in the vicinity of Matlock? You're having a fucking laugh right?

There were however some of the most cuntish, inconsiderate bikers I've seen for a long time in Matlock Bath.

I felt I had to appologise on their behalf when a whole crowd of young fucking oiks (a good 30-40 of them) filtered to the front of patiently queuing traffic at a contra-flow and pushed in the front. They kept this up for three cycles of the lights without a single car being able to move off. I landed up sitting out in the road blocking them and told the driver next to me to go first while I held them back.

I also witnessed people pulling straight out into traffic, filtering through pedestrian crossings on zig-zags and all other manner of inconsiderate fuckwittery. They pissed me off and I was on a bike.

So. I'd be all for fitting a few CCTV cameras in the centre of Matlock Bath and dishing out a few tickets. People who ride like that make life difficult for everyone else.

well From reading this I can see why Matlock justified putting in parking costs for bikes if large groups act like twats. Shame for the rest of us.
Get off the beaten track and Derbyshire still has some great roads with no plod, but you still have to ride for fun but with consideration .

To be fair (sorry), the only allowable purpose of parking charges is "traffic management". Deterring a particular type of traffic is a bit of a stretch, but far more honest and defensible than Westminster's farcical scheme.
