And a lovely Queue it was.

Yep with the Boys In Blue. However don't let this put you off, they are doing it for part of their BikeSafe initiative. While you won't be able to test the top speed of a GSXR1000 so long as you relax you'll have a good ride.

If I have any petrol in the car and haven't got a game, I may well pop on over for a day out.

I think I will be taking my license and documents this year, try and test ride everything apart from the norton's. Ducati, Triumph and Yamaha by the look of it.
Going to try every Ducati, really wanna play on the 675 and the Speed Triple.

Do you need take anything other than your photocard license to take a test ride?

Take both parts of the licence to be sure. Some are fine without it though its best to have so not to be disappointed.

Ravingdavis needed both parts of his licence and one other form of ID for a test ride on a Duke from the Ducati roadshow.


This Sunday, folks. Anyone going?
