I'm delighted to have added the LS2 Apollo jacket and trousers to the Bennetts #HighPerformanceAward database.
This AAA-rated kit is on review now, and comfortable, well ventilated and feature-packed – I'm just waiting for some heavy rain for testing. John Milbank, Consumer Editor

I'm so proud of what the Bennetts team in Pboro achieved last year, raising £5,818.81 for Magpas Air Ambulance #charity. This amazing charity relies 100% on donations to provide life-saving care across eight counties. John, Consumer Editor @cambridgeindy.bsky.social @anna4labour.bsky.social

The biggest ever #motorcycle corrosion #test is almost ready... I still need to do some stickiness and material compatibility testing, but which do YOU think is going to win?! This is a grab from the start, more than four months ago.

Noose-end chains have proved to be poor sellers in the past, but I think that – paired with a quality D-lock – they're one of the best pieces of #motorcycle security you can invest in! John

KTM announced that, due to 'significant hurdles' it's set to initiate a 'legal restructuring proceeding with self-administration'. Our thoughts are with the employees, and hope that the company – which has produced some truly ground-breaking bikes – finds a solution. Will we see CFMoto investing?!

Despite 95% public support, the government will not be mandating that motorcyclists have universal access to all bus lanes in the UK.
This doesn’t mean that all bus-lanes are now out of bounds, and individual local authorities will remain able to make their own decisions. Full story in the comments.
