I have been speaking to a lady called Amy at the BBC today.

Some of you I know choose to wear textile jackets rather than leather. Some of you may be thinking about changing your textile jacket. Have you or are you considering an airbag jacket? If you are thinking about a new jacket, and if you are thinking possibly of an airbag jacket, then have a look at h...

But you're not required to carry your driving licence with you. No your not I agree, but if ID was incoporated into the driving licence it would only be a simple rule change to make carrying your licence compulsory and it would be no more of a hardship, in fact it would be one less piece of plastic...

So if there are any smokers...

Yes mate, you're old ;) Thanks.... Rub it in why don't you? ;) :D That said, if you have not ridden one in the past, don't knock it until you have tried one.
