Evening All. Loving the community, thanks for looking at my post
Q1.
So i have smashed into my 40's and am fed up with my commute traffic and parking issues. I work in construction and can be a little all over the place. My commutes can be 50 miles each way, I live in the Cotswold's and can get to most of my sites quite easily without hitting a motorway Bristol, Bath, Swindon, Worcester etc If i end up going to B-Ham or London i will be on the train. I normally carry a laptop with me so a bit of space for a bag is handy. I also wear a suit to work so have no need to dress in a leather onesie or pretend i'm sponsored by an energy drink. The boss is fine with my getting a bike thing but she does not want it to become an expensive folly, so we need to be frugal, Im getting my license next month and insurance looks crazy on all but the most modest of machines. Can anyone recommend something that ticks all the boxes? Bike or Scooter?
Q2
Is a 125 big enough? certainly seems the cheapest way of doing it?
Q3
parking at stations seems to be a nightmare as i cant find where to park a bike online. How do you find bike parking?
Thanks Everyone
