I'm Tim and I'm a car journalist… but at heart I'm a slightly lanky fat bloke who likes riding motorbikes. Mostly on the road, occasionally on track and off-road if I've suddenly had an attack of overconfidence. Join me for bike reviews that cut through the PR nonsense and get straight to the nub of whether a bike's actually *fun*.
