Hire / rent bike

[beverage]

Hi All,

From Toronto, Canada, but working in London this week and next. Thinking of renting / hiring a motorcycle this Saturday or Sunday and checking out some English countryside!

1. Any recommendations on where I can get a decent rental? I ride an SV all the time, so something different would be nice. Say a VFR, or Street Triple (short-listed for next purchase ;)). I'm staying right by Angel Station in the Islington region, but picking up a bike further from the city core would be best.
2. Anyone feel like being a tour guide? Pace - I like giving it the berries, but half my concentration will probably be spent on staying on the left side of the road, and I wouldn't mind actually seeing some of the scenery too!

Thanks,
B

Edit: Been street riding for 18+ years. In my 30's. So I'm not a newbie.

I don't know if they still do rentals but, Daytona in Ruislip used to rent out bikes, they also have SV's by the way.
Their number is 01895 679703, give them a call.

Raceways rent but they aren't that cheap... got a website and last I looked a few different offices...
