About trucking time

Probably more relevant to 125 riders but as of this week hgvs can now do 50mph on nsl single carriage roads in England and Wales so the truck you normally just nip past might be going faster than your used to...

Not sure , got my class 1 but it's hard getting on anywhere with no experience and I can't afford to drop wages whilst I get it.. Macdonalds ( Martin browsers ) are constantly taking on at Heywood so ill prob try them.. I deliver to blue dolphin every week, Primrose valley is a bit nicer I think... We slum it in a tent so cant go there..
