166 in a 60 as he was 'Seduced by speed'.
Not the brightest remark from a defence solicitor.
Nearly as stupid as the rider.

Agree Eddie but I tend to think that even the solicitor was lost for words in defending (or trying to) defend his client and probably that was all he could think of at the time!!
For some-one to ride a motorbike at that speed especially on a single carriageway road beggars belief, just hate to think of the consequences on life had he hit another vehicle let alone his!!

Amazes me how he was 'deeply ashamed'
The only regret hw will have is that he was caught

You can be reduced by speed as well.
Never drive faster than you Guardian Angel can fly.

Mitigation is a rather difficult art. It's easy to criticise, but a great deal harder to do it properly
