A biker-friendly petrol pump?


Non-slip floor, helmet stand, visor cleaning facilities - it's about time we were taken seriously


IT SEEMS the French have the right idea when it comes to biker-friendly petrol stations. Industry giant, Total, have unveiled a series of new-style pumps specifically designed for bikers.

The pumps have a special non slip floor, a modified nozzle for small tank apertures, washing facilities for visors and even a helmet stand. But if you can't be bothered to remove your lid then there's card payment facilities at the pump.

We love the idea. So come on you petrol fat-cats - let's have them installed over here.
