Have they discontinued the classic road tax concession then, Albie? I hadn't heard about that. The miserable, weasely, penny pinching, stupid, killjoy, buffoons. Exactly how much of their road system do they expect us to wear out doing a few hundred miles a year on an old classic motorcycle? And on top of that, they don't design the roads for bikes anyway, with their dangerous traffic calming schemes, speed humps on tight bends, unrepaired potholes, super-skiddy tarmac/mastic repairs etc.
Rant, rant, rant......
