XS1100 0 Posted February 23, 2012 This offer is unfortunately quite unavailable for most people using a bike for their shopping, here is the text of an e-mail I have sent to their headquarters asking about this.......... "Dear Morrisons, I am writing about your offer of 15p off a litre of petrol, when you buy £60 worth or more of shopping. This sounds great for everyone who visits you with a nice big car, but is, of course, of no use whatsoever to a motorcyclist who would never be able to fit £60 worth of shopping on their bike. I would like to suggest that you might like to offer a "Bikers special" whereby you receive the same discount for £20 worth of shopping, but you would be limited to just filling up a motorcycle petrol tank, far smaller than a car tank.. I think the net cost to yourselves would be roughly the same, and you would have the advantage of attracting the large amount of bikers who get sent out to do the shopping, we are always keen to support shops that do not discriminate against us."

fr499y 0 Posted February 23, 2012 i was told the reason why when having an argument with a morrisons cashier. Its because the foreign workers ( i shit you not ) wearing headscalf's and burkers feel threatened by the motorcycle helmet... which has resulted in the "removing helmet or no fuel" policy.
