French Win.....

This article, written by an RAF fighter pilot, explains why people fail to see other vehicles including bikes.

Re: Get a Licence - the 3rd EU Driving Licence Directive (3DLD)

I know I risk being heckled but here goes. I'm over 24, in fact I'm over 34 by a few miles. If I take my test this year on a 125cc or next year on a 125cc is there any difference in the 2 year restriction, in terms of bhp? Yes.

ABR Yorkshire Moors 'Ecky Thump' Rally 11th - 14th October

On a slightly different note, I'm afraid I'm going to have to relinquish my place on the rally. Hope you all have a great time and if I can make the November one I'll see you all then...
