Fishy Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Insurance massively depends on your postcode, and for the unfortunate ones prices can differ between £400 to £800 with different postcodes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

female driving Posted June 6 Report Share Posted June 6 Hey everyone! I hope you're all doing well and enjoying your rides. I wanted to share an interesting perspective on how mastering bike trials can translate into better driving skills, especially for new drivers. Female driving instructor, The balance, control, and precision required in bike trials can significantly enhance spatial awareness and reaction times on the road. This is something I found particularly helpful when I was learning to drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
