The guys at Bennetts, leading providers of motorcycle insurance have kindly allowed us to show pictures from their Bennets Babes Bucking Bike competition.
This is the UK's first Bucking Bike and the Bennetts Babes had a a great time seeing who could stay on the Bucking Bike for the longest, even when wet!
To see the full gallery of pictures on http://www.inter-bike.co.uk/ click HERE
But even better we've been given permission to back the pictures with the fantastic rock track The Gods from The Gentlemen of Distorted Sound (The GODS).
The GODS are a four piece British Rock Band that have crashed onto the biker scene, otherwise known as the ‘Dukes of Ducati’ - when they play, you listen.

Just back from playing the Oswestry Biker Festival they have joined forces with the Bennetts Babes to bring you their latest offering of their track ‘The Gods’. Taken from their new album Black AM, it has the pedigree of classic rock fused with the edge of today’s urban music culture.
Don't forget we've also got the video clip of the Bennetts Babes Bucking Bike Compeition on http://www.inter-bike.co/ as well, its HERE

Common sense prevails, new practical motorcycle test delayed!

Finally common sense has prevailed, the DSA (Driving Standards Agency) has announced a six month delay to the introduction of the new practical motorcycle test due to be introduced on the 29th September.

Pressure from leading motorcycle representative groups working together including the Motorcycle Industry Association (MCIA) and the Motorcycle Rider Training Association (MRTA) has finally brought about this last minute U turn!

Deferring the introduction of the new motorcycle test until 2009 was a tough choice, but also the only logical one for Government to make, and the RMI Motorcycle Rider Training Association (MRTA) applauds the decision, according to Kevin Bryan, MRTA Chairman.

Lets hope six months is long enough to get an adequate number of new test centres operational?

Ride safe.
