A couple have loaned a top-of-the-range motorbike for firefighters to run a road safety campaign.
Sue and Bill Cannon, of Braintree-based Cannon BMW motorcycle dealers, have teamed up again with Essex County Fire and Rescue Service to launch the Firebike scheme.
Six motorbiking firefighters will visit hundreds of motorbike events over the next seven months to make bikers more aware of keeping themselves and their passengers safe on the road.
