Speed demons

Two motorcyclists, trying to emulate Dani Pedrosa, lost 400 points from their licenses after riding along the Leon motorway at speeds up to 300km/h (186mph). In total they committed 30 different offences.

A witness , who managed to make a recording of the pair on a DVD, reported them to the Guardia Civil. The limit on the CL-631 between Ponferrada and Villablino is 90km/h (50mph). The two reduced their speed to 200km/h (124mph) on sections with a 40km/h (25mph) limit.

The police are still looking to arrest a third man they have identified from the recording.


For those who don't know; Dani Pedrosa (Daniel Pedrosa Ramal) is the youngest 125cc and 250 cc Moto GP champion.
