  42 or bust - Runfer D'Hills
Just got back from one of our mountain biking trips. There's a forest about 20 miles away we use a lot.

To get there, it's A roads, a mixture of 60 mph, 40 mph and 30 mph limits. Seems though on a Sunday, we always seem to get stuck in a queue behind an Arthur Dent as we call them. A person to whom the answer to everything is 42...

No one will overtake them either. They all just sit there in a funereal chain, half a car length apart, all doing 42. If you pull out to move up the queue, they drive even closer to the vehicle in front, determinedly ensuring you can't safely get past despite their own inability or unwillingness to overtake. When the limit drops to 30, perhaps there might be a clue there as to potential hazards chaps, they still convoy along at 42.

Sometimes I'd quite like a bazooka or high calibre machine gun mounted on the roof...
