I'll be brief. Noticed that my lad's cover note expired at 00:01 Sunday morning. He needs his bike to get to work. RCI don't answer the phone on Sundays so I gave him a lift to work at 06:00. I then tried every hour or so from 09:00 to get through but gave up each time after 15 minutes or so on hold. I let it...

I'm just back from a few days (road) riding around Scotland and there were bikes everywhere - mainly big BMW GSs and KTM Adventures. Conversations in the evening always include the question: "what are you riding?" and this is the exchange I had with a mature and very mildly spoken Dutch biker we met in U...

Greg Villalobos is planning to do a trip around Devon next month and he will be filming it. Anyone not familiar with Greg's work can find it HERE he's a very talented filmmaker as you can see. He obviously wants to see great picturesque lanes but he's also aft...
Just thinking. I know where the lanes are but was up walking the hound on East Budleigh Common and there were lots off footpath signs but I had no idea where they might have gone. Would have been good to have seen them on the phone Brian
