Im looking for cover myself as recently found out that my breakdown cover through my bank didnt cover bikes ggrrr esp as i was sat at the side of the road after my front tyre valve gave out at 60mph down a country lane :eek . Phoned them and said not covered then put the phone down on me . Phoned local company and wanted £180 just to take me 15 miles home . Dont think so .
Luckily there was a pub 100yds down road so pushed bike up to pub :b and spoke with landlady , who let me keep bike in shed over nite . Plus gave me a free tab while i waited for the wife to pick me up . Took wheel off and repaired the next day. Went bck to pub fitted wheel enjoyed nice shandy in the garden , all sorted . This pub is now a regular ride out stop and great people all round there , shows there are humans out there .
Still looking for decent recovery company tho , AA AND RAC are def out reading posts .
