Thanks to the technology of Mippin  , this site is now available to you via mobile phone (like the iPhone, Nokia and others that have browsers).
The access is based initially on the RSSReally Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary - a way of spreading information from a website without requiring to browse that website feed of this site, including photos.
It's very fast. You'll initially see the latest 10 headlines and photos, plus a 2nd page of the next 10.
At the bottom of the list, there's even a "rate this site" and bookmark buttons.
Click on [Read] in the headline, and you get the full RSS summary of the story.
The RSS Summary is usually a paragraph or two. Enough to allow you to make the decision to read more or not.
You can use the links below the summary to send the article-link to your friends, or use it to Twitter...or even Facebook...
If you want to read the whole article, click on [See original story].
Best is next, to select the [Google Mobile Version] since it's very quick and loads formatted for a mobile phone. The rendering of the original story is not always the nicest, but you'll see all original photos and text. There may be a few carriage returns missing here and there, so paragraphs get joined, but it's still readable.
The Mippin version is very fast on a phone, since all special formatting is removed. It obviously doesn't replace PC browsers, but it'll give you what's going on when you're away from your computer.
This way you don't have to miss our site... 
We'll be doing more development work over the next few months to give you a more readable full version of articles. I'll keep you informed.
I hope you like it...
Now, to access it from your mobile phone, enter "http://mippin.com/motorbiker", or if you're reading this already on a phone, click on the button below (the button is also available on your right in the "This Site" panel).
