THE IKES MOREB QUIZ

It’s time to get out your pens and pencils and put your grey matter to the test.

We love a bit of trivia here at MoreBikes. No matter whether we’re at a pub quiz with a beer in one hand and a pencil in the other, or being questioned by our mates when we’re stood around at a bike night, there’s something about knowing the answer to an unexpected question that gives us a nice fuzzy feeling inside. And if we don’t know, then there’s a good chance we might learn something. That’s cool, too. That’s why we’ve decided to introduce a regular quiz section sponsored by our good pals at Fowlers (who’ll be supplying the prizes).

We’ll be asking you questions about all manner of two-wheeled stuff, pushing your memories to the limit and asking you to dig deep to try and remember all manner of strange stuff from right across the world of bikes. It’s a chance for you to show off your infinite two-wheeled wisdom and be in with a chance of winning some cool prizes, or if not, learn a few things that you might not know.
