| Same thing is going on over here but each state is different.
Just giving us more time but not exempting us yet. Registrations, drivers licence etc. Motorcycle dealers in PA. can't sell a bike but service is still open??? Same with cars not sure how that make sense.

| I think it's a good idea if your MOT is due soon......provided it's not taken for granted by certain 'Likes' and ride/drive around in or on some death-trap, but as there are a minimum amount of vehicles on the roads, I am sure they will be picked up by the Police quicker and stopped, the Government have obviously got together with all the insurance companies to get this through in a rush. I wonder if the MOT testing fee will rise after it's all settled down to gather the losses ? |

| I got mine done slightly early when I went down to Salisbury to collect it. Peace of mind is important these days. Had the Jimny done last week, too; again, slightly early but I had wondered if total lock-down happened as forecast what arrangements, if any, would be put in place. |

| Yes, Kev; as I suggested, I worry about these things these days. Sad but true.
I may go shopping next week for bread and milk in particular, I have it mind to take the Silverwing instead of the car. My usual Tesco is 20 minutes away so the bike will get a bit of an airing. I ride along the coast road so will see the sea. |
