Can I get a pick up from my house?

Posted by David Davis on Wednesday, February 20, 2019, In : Guest Motorcycle Articles

Sometimes you have something to gain by arranging a multi stop shipment with your Warrington courier service instead of setting up several different deliveries. This can save you money, and can also save you time by making sure that the deliveries are made to your clients as promptly as possible. However, not all couriers have this option. It is important therefore that you find out ahead of time if your courier company has options for multi stop shipments.

This is another service, just like s...

Medical supplies shipping

Manchester Medical Courier. Many businesses in the Manchester area that deal with medical supplies find themselves in a situation where they must transport their material during hot weather conditions. Many Manchester couriers offer supplies and have the facilities to ensure that medical materials stay in neutral, temperature-controlled environments. Not all medical material is temperature-sensitive, but if there is a significant amount of material that needs to be shipped, it is best to find...

Courier pickup during Holidays

Posted by Mathew Allwood on Thursday, January 24, 2019, In : Courier Service

Sometimes businesses require deliveries and pickups to be made outside of normal business hours. Quite often, this is going to be due to the 24-hour global economy that has come to be a way of existence for many companies, particularly those that handle regular transportation of goods. While it is usually more efficient for both parties; the courier and the shipper, to do business within the regular business work day, there are many reasons why a courier in Warrington may have a 24-hour hotli...

Group motorbike riding

Posted by Howard Trott on Friday, January 12, 2018, In : Motorcycle Riding Skills

While group motorbike ride-outs can be a fun leisure activity, safety should always be the rider’s first priority.

Passing

Before passing a vehicle, ensure there is ample space and visibility. Keep an eye out for debris in the road, excessive wind, and other vehicles’ mirrors to avoid hitting them. Motorcyclists should always pass in the centre of the lane to avoid other vehicles’ blind spots.

Appoint a Road Captain

Riding your motorcycle in a group

Posted by Howard Trott on Friday, September 29, 2017, In : Motorcycle Riding Skills

Riding with a group of friends gives you a chance to explore new routes, gain experience and make new friends. Before you head out on the road there are a few things you should think about to make sure your trip is as enjoyable and safe as possible.

Organising the group

It’s unlikely that everyone in your group will have the same level of experience and ability. Danger tends to arise when less experienced riders feel they have to ride faster or above their ability to keep up with the group, s...

Starting your motorcycle uphill

Posted by Howard Trott on Tuesday, September 26, 2017, In : Motorcycle Riding Skills

Stopping on an uphill slope and then getting going again can be tricky, particularly for riders with insufficient inseam length to make solid contact with the ground. Here are some tips to help you handle these situations.

Evaluate your options

When you see that you must stop on a hill, identify an approach that is clear of significant debris or surface contamination that may cause your foot or tires to slip. Avoid vehicle drippings, sand, gravel and slick surfaces. You also want to stop so yo...

World Superbikes

Posted by Howard Trott on Thursday, January 16, 2014, In : World Superbikes

The Brands Hatch round of the World Superbike Championship has become, like the Bol D'Or and the Daytona 200, one of those occasions that transcends motorcycle sport. Crowds regulary run into six figures, making it the best attended one day sporting event in the UK.

Rewind back to 1988, and the first ever World Superbike race, and an optimist might have counted 10,000 people inside Donington Park. Take today's spectator back to that first race and they would have trouble recognising it as a W...

Transportation Of Valuable Necklace

Posted by Howard Trott on Sunday, October 27, 2013, In : Security Motorcycle Courier

Transportation of Valuable Necklace from Manchester to London. Friday 25th October.
Had a call from a lady who needed an antique necklace picking up from her late Grandmothers house in Manchester and delivering it to her at London. There was no time deadline, but she wanted the necklace delivered the same day.
With items like these I lock them away in a steel lock box, which is then locked in a Backpack. With her Grandmother recently deceased I talked through everything slowly and put everythin...
