A word to vehicle insurance companies…

Unless you automatically offer me your very best quote on my renewal, I will take insurance from someone else.

My insurers had the cheek to increase my premiums by twenty quid, even though I now have a year’s no claims bonus more than the previous year. When I check on their website, the quote comes in far lower than the renewal quote.

So now, I’ve changed my insurer.. saved myself £80 and reduced my excess.

Happy 10000 miles

Yesterday I did my first 10000 miles on my bike. It took me around 11 months.

Happy 10,000 miles!

Next summer’s plan

I have a plan for next summer, which involves riding my motorbike to Tromsø, Norway inside the Arctic Circle, going via Denmark, Sweden and Finland.

Anyone interested in coming along? I’m guestimating the trip will take 3 weeks, but I’ve not organised anything yet.
