AN open day for prospective motorcyclists is being held on April 28 at Salisbury Livestock Market.

A1 Roadcraft is hosting the event in conjunction with Salisbury Motorcycle and Light Car Club.

Prospective riders can try out bikes, with protective clothing, helmets and expert supervision provided for free.

Kevin Chapman of Salisbury Motorcycle and Light Car Club said: “The objective of the open day is to provide an opportunity for anyone to come along and try for themselves what it is like to ride a bike and at the same time get some expert advice on how to get started or advancing to the next stage.

“Two wheeled transport can provide a genuine low cost solution to personal transport as well as having some practical advantages over car use and we would like to extend the benefits of motorcycles and scooters to as many people as possible.”
