Full Chat is a new podcast from the specialist motorcycle insurance broker, Bikesure, hosted by former Olympic athlete, Iwan Thomas, and former Premier League footballer David Prutton. Both have moved on from their former sports careers to expand their positions, while not only retaining a link to their roles but also, within the new podcast, showing their passion for motorcycling.
So, while Iwan and David are obviously very successful sportsmen with a strong following, they're also massive bike fans and what we're interested in is not just how knowledgeable, entertaining and bikeobsessive they are, but also how they can bring new blood to the wonderful world of motorcycling.

How to maintain your battery
Most riders won't notice that anything is amiss with their battery until they press the ignition switch and their motorcycle fails to start. With a little bit of luck, they might be able to recharge the battery, but that takes time. Should the battery have become deeply discharged, and beyond recovery, then it will need replacing, causing more time lost and unwelcome expense. Often overlooked, battery maintenance is simple and, apart from keeping your battery in top working condition, will also significantly extend its lifespan. What's not to like? MSL asked the battery saving experts at OptiMate to explain the theory behind the practice of battery maintenance.
