• How to buy a 125cc legal learner motorcycle

    August 3, 2015

    I recently decided to pass the CBT (Compulsory Bike Training). This is the test that everyone needs to take to progress to riding larger bikes. After you’ve completed your CBT, you can ride a moped or a motorbike up to 125cc on the road with L plates (L or D plates in Wales) until you pass your full motorcycle test. The day involved some theory, introduction to the bike, bike checks, riding round a car park learning basic manoeuvring, signalling, gear changes, emergency stop and then 2 hours out on the road.

    Much esteemed guests from Boulder Colorado who enjoyed our Svaneti tour last year have been dabbling in some Georgian cooking. The valiant project recreated the world famous ‘Georgian Snickers’ champion sports food ‘Churchela’, made from walnut pieces on a string generously dipped in Wine Molasses. Rumoured to hold more energy pound for pound than even the most high tech sports supplement and last for an entire season in the guiding backpack this delicacy is guaranteed to catch on Stateside and beyond.

    I do a lot of running and cycling but doing only these activities means that you might not gain an overall level of all-round fitness. Try Interval and Calisthenics training for a more all-round workout. Interval Training Originally called Fartlek (a Swedish term meaning “speed play”), interval training combines alternating short and fast bursts of intense exercise with slower, easier activity. Fartlek training was a deliberate attempt to complete more work than continuous training by increasing the intensity of workouts.
