Did anyone manage to get a copy of "Bike" Magazine (August or September Issue?) The reason I ask is because it should have had a free cover DVD attached called "Great Roads...Great Rides". Now it maybe that cover DVD's are omitted from overseas copies of the mag which if I knew to be true would have answered my question, but I have found it increasingly difficult to find recent copies of "Bike" on the shelves here in Welly. The DVD in question was issued by the Highways Agency in the UK as a guide to safer riding. It was not an attempt to teach bikers how to suck eggs, but it contained a lot of useful information that may help a lot of new riders here in New Zealand too. How do I know this you ask?
Well I won the commission to create all the on-screen graphics and animations in the DVD. (I'm a freelance TV graphic designer and the DVD producer was a colleague back in the UK - nuff said!)The DVD has chapters on Bike Preparation, Kit advice, Reading the road, Group Riding, Security, Crash Scene Management, Planning your ride, Keeping your licence, and Skills Enhancement. I have a copy of the DVD which I could copy if anyone were interested. But please don't all rush at once...I do not have a multi-copying facility in my office here at home so I'd have to copy it as and when required.
