Title: Motorcyclists ride to protest anti-motorcycle proposals

Motorcyclists in the Philippines have had enough of anti-motorcycling policies introduced by the government and local councils. We think the UK is bad but how would you fancy a pillion ban, not being allowed on motorways or dual carriageways and having to paint your registration number on the back of your helmet. That is, if you are allowed to wear a helmet.

Unbelievably, those are already in place or being debated in the Philippines.

Title: Whos a plonker?

Heading down between Leominster and market drayton I ran out of road, by this i mean i hit some horrible overbanding at 50 while going round a corner. i paniked and hit the front and rear brakes, of course now my bike hit the deck, (right hand side), this led to the bike flipping arounds its length by 180 degrees and ending up on its other side in a nearby layby.

the damage is a broken mirror so im lucky realy, considering my real bike got 2500 worth of damage form somebody reversing into it at 5 mph its fairly lucky.

Im amazed i only damaged the mirror, as it is a 'courtesy' bike should i just replace th mirror and pretend nothing happened? otherwise my NCB wuld be at jeopardy.

Title: After a bit of a mistake.....

Well, who would have thought that when you made a 'best offer' on ebay, the seller didn't check it and get back to you, it is automatically accepted and you find you have won the item Oo1.gif

So, as it has been (deleted to avoid embarrasment) years since I last looked at a 50cc bike, can anyone give me any info on the one below that I seem to have inadvertantly brought for my son.

Thanks

Ooops

Title: Insurance

Just started a job at an Insurance Brokers. They do car/home/bike but for now I'm just talking bikes.

If your insurance is coming up for renewal, and you want me to see if I can get you a better deal (as we can get preferential rates) PM me your details and I will try for you. Will need the standard stuff...

Name
DOB
Address
Tel
date passed test
any advance test
occupation
marital status

Bike
Security
Mileage
reg
points/claims


Obviously you may be a bit dubious about passing this info to somebody youve never met, if you PM me your email I can email you from work to show I'm legit, or you could call the office...
