Although I started off on the roads with a car like most people when I was seventeen, within a few years I had decided that my passion was really for motors stationed on just the two wheels. Ever since then I have always ridden motorbikes and I haven’t owned a car for about seven years.

The only problem with riding bikes is ultimately you are going to want something more powerful. So it proved for me, about once every year! I started with a little chicken chaser with a 50 cc engine, soon progressed to a 125, then a 250, followed by a 650, and now I have just bought my first 1000 cc motorbike!

I have to say that it has been a real problem with insurance though. My insurance company before was the same people who had always insured me, including when I first started driving a car, and as such it is an insurance company that is predominantly aimed at car drivers. I always thought that this didn’t matter, but ober the years I have started to think that the cost is pretty high, and my quote for my new bike was enormous! It was actually a figure that I woCuldn’t be able to afford to pay, so I decided to look for a company that was more used to dealing with bike insurance.

Fortunately I came across Carole Nash. A great company and an even better price! I was thrilled and hundreds got chopped off the price! I could breathe easy knowing that I could at least afford to get this bike on the road!
