fastbob Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 One thing I'm going to do is seek clarification from my insurance company that my Breakdown Cover is still valid and whether there is in fact any actual Breakdown Service operating . You never know . And FFS can we please hold back on the Harley jokes just for one evening . Thanks . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggie Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 [mention]fastbob[/mention] From what I heard a few weeks ago, recovery is still happening for bikes but if they can't repair at roadside all they can do for you is take it to a garage. Not bring it home or give you a lift anywhere Cars are different as you can sit in your own car while being towed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onesea Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 One caveat (at least)Stay out of Wales.I am putting Dorset, on that list for me as the police there run there own rules...Annoying as it's only 5 miles away... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XTreme Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 im having Thursday off @XTreme you out this week ... No.......no change.....still on Phase Zero!Possibility of a reassessment to Phase 1 later this week which might give us a little bit more freedom by Monday next week.But it's still not really clear whether we can get out and ride on Phase 1.I got mates in Almeria and Murcia provinces whose Phase 1 kicks in tomorrow.......so I'll be watching with interest how they get on.

You can't ride it without an MOT . You can ride it TO the MOT Station obviously . I've got mine booked in at the Tyre Fitters on Thursday because they reopen on Monday . We must support small local businesses after all . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonio Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 At last I can get my front tyre scrubbed in - two months after fitting it. A record? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Richzx6r Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 So mind me for clarification......we are allowed to go out on the bike from Wednesday am I right?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mawsley Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I'm riding to the MOT station the second I can get a slot, and green laning all the way home afterwards.I just need to look like I'm exercising outside the shop if a police car drives by - so I'm going to ride to town in the wife's knickers, a headband, and a crop top. No real change there tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mawsley Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Looks like you can go out on it tomorrow, to go to work. And the self employed who work from home? Is it OK if I commute from the bedroom to the lounge via the B6047? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastbob Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Everyone strap a rolled up Yoga Mat to their bikes and , hey presto ! A go anywhere ticket . If you get pulled by the Rozzers just whip it out and stand on your head or something. The less acrobatic among us can just sit on their arses and pull serene faces .

XTreme Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 You can play cricket with a close family member in a garden centre after work, but preferably not on a bus.You can meet your mother for golf but not Pictionary. Your father can join in a game of charades but only if he shouts his answers from upstairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
