Insurance..............ggggrrrrrr

[Lawrence]

Counts yourselves lucky you're not a new rider. Cheapest I found was eBike at £550 TPFT. Still insured on it, to bring up the no-claims while I'm away.

You must be young and/or in a shite postcode.  Mine would've been about £450 in E11 (East London, almost as bad as it gets before they stop giving quotes) but dropped to £135 when I moved.  29 yrs old, 0ncd, test passed that morning
