About Us

Bikers Advice (formerly Bikers' Advice Bureau) is a consumer organisation for all motorcyclists. Operating on-line (with full off-line support), we aim to provide quality indepth information on products & services. You, as the consumer, can then make informed choices when purchasing.

We are INDPENDENT of any insurer, group of lawyers, manufacturer or dealership. We know it's a cliche but we are just BIKERS FOR BIKERS

Who would have thought that bikers would need PR!

We rely on Viva to help make people like you aware of our existence and to shout about our news and campaigns that we are currently running.

So here’s a little bit about them:

She is a pillion on her partners Honda CBR 600F. Although she isn’t a rider she is never off the back of the bike and loves going for long rides through Lancashire, stopping for her usual egg, cheese and tomato ketchup sarnies and a cup of hot chocolate!

Tony Garner is Lancashire’s very own PR guru with a wealth of experience in the field. Before setting up Viva PR five years ago, Tony was a sports journalist for the Lancashire Evening Telegraph for just over 15years.
