Next week is the annual Motorcycle Industry lead, Ride to Work week. A time to get out there on your scooters, get yourself noticed by all those commuters stuck in traffic and more importantly enjoy your ride. It’s too easy to get out of the habit of riding to work. Make this summer the time when you change all that and maybe encourage friends and workmates to do the same.
National Ride To Work Week 2017
Maybe your current rider insurance doesn’t cover you for your daily commute and maybe you’d like to wow your colleagues with your custom scooter, or maybe you’d enjoy a less stressful journey to work? Read On….
Free Insurance
Motorcycle insurers Ageas, Bennetts, Bikesure*, Harley-Davidson Insurance Services and Carole Nash are all offering free commuter cover to leisure riders, so that they can ride to work during national Ride to Work Week from Monday 19th June to Friday 23rd June 2017. *if a Bikesure policyholder with Ageas, Markerstudy or Highway Delighted Boss Ride to Work Week campaign manager Stevie Muir says “We are delighted these companies are encouraging leisure riders to try commuting on their scooters during Ride to Work Week, by extending their cover. “Around two-thirds of motorcyclists only opt for social and domestic cover and so are missing out on the huge benefits of commuting on their bikes. These include saving time, money and enjoying easier parking. Regular commuters are also likely to become more skilled road users and the best reason of all is that it’s just more fun!”
National Statistics
The campaign slogan #commutehappy is backed up by fact. Motorcyclists are among the happiest commuters according to a one off survey by the Office for National Statistics. It revealed that riding a motorcycle, moped or scooter had no negative impact on well-being on commutes up to 30 minutes and after that it was negligible. This was in contrast to those who walked, cycled, took the bus or drove, who all experienced a dip in well-being after just 15 minutes.
Free Hi-Viz for Workplace Events
Campaign hi-viz vests are available for free for those organising their own workplace events (subject to availability), which can be ordered by contacting the team press@ridetoworkweek.co.uk. Regardless of the Weather give it a spin So, if you’re a leisure only rider and your insured by one of the brokers listed, give them a call and enjoy the ride to work, if it’s raining get your waterproofs on!
