    I behaved last time but this time, I'll test my eyesight whenever I feel like it. I'll happily refuse a fine and argue in a court that I was testing my eyesight too.

    THE Driver Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) has confirmed that all motorcycle tests and booked training sessions are suspended for the duration of the COVID-19 lockdown.



    The news comes after Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced a second national lockdown, from November 5 until December 2.

    Interesting...NOTE the phrase 'recreation is not execise and motorcycling is certainly recreation'.

    Some bloke my wife works with rides a motorbike to and from work - has been pulled over twice on two consecutive evenings asking whether his journey was deemed essential. One would think bikers are being targeted?

    Certainly sounds like it

    From what I gather from the lawyer's document, motorcycling is 'per se' a recreation as is dog walking or jogging.

    Simply going for a little ride is therefore permissable.
