| Interesting post....
For my twopence worth I fully agree with Ian and Henners.
I also believe that part of the mentality we have to suffer in this country (as against the continent) is that motorcycling is no longer regarded as an 'essential' means of transport any more - how many people really have a bike as a sole means of travel?
In the continent, where bikes are used every day - much nicer weather plays its part I guess - bikes are an accepted part of life. Whereas in the UK I think the perception is that they are 'Just a Hobby' ??? |
