Or, show a bunch of motorcyclists a lot of pictures of bad accidents involving bikes. got some useful information and a free 30 minute assessment and at least now I know I ride well enough not kill myself or anyone else.
Main point is any accident involving bike and any other vehicle is - we lose.
Got soaked as well it chucked it down while riding through Scots Gap, got home and my leathers weighed twice as much as when I started out.

That"ll be the pies. ... And where is Scott"s Gap or is that just your porn star name?

For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

Somewhere you ride through to get to the good roads.

I used to go to farmers auction mart at Scots Gap. It was always business related but we spent very enjoyable days watching and chatting...... and eating fresh roast dinners in the farmers canteen.

Lots up there, the small roads though are well used and covered in mud\slurry etc,
It didn't matter much on Saturday as the roads were almost underwater, took me longer to clean the bike than it did to get home.
will go up there again when it's dry.
