Motorways on a motorbike are just fucking shit. End of. Only reason to use them is if you need to save time.
Here's a curious one. Anyone inside the M25 know how one can get about renting industrial space? Maybe shared with others. I'm hitting plural on project and it's getting very fucking boring taking out and stowing tools away every day.

Did London and back M4/M3/M25 on Sunday just for the motorway practice - needed a full there-and-back day to satisfy curiosity. Decided no, it is not worth the time saving.
Fuck me the M25 is bad, eastbound I had my front wheel sketch out at 75mph on a pothole, and there were channeled ruts for miles at a time. How? Awful. Also got punish passed and wanker-signed at, while at 70-80 by a guy going over 100. Gotta love London.
Headwind and rain was so bad I was doing a press-up motion for hours at a time to try keep the front feeling planted.
Speedo cable broke within 30 miles so I was relying on gps for speed.
So. Curiosity satisfied. If pushed, I can do hours on the motorway on the DR, but no. It is not worth it unless exceptional or unavoidable.
