Alison Silcox

Office Manager

I’m not a journalist by trade and am more at home with numbers, than words, but that said, over my twenty plus years working for MCN, I’ve had the pleasure of being part of the best motorcycling family in the business. Passing my test in 2005, I’ve been part of the MCN Long Term Test fleet, testing a mix of machines, from my first Kawasaki ER-6n, through to the Ducati Diavel, and pretty much all genres in between.

I love nothing more than loading my bike up with kit and disappearing off for a solo adventure. Over recent years I’ve taken solo tours to Scotland, Southern Ireland, France, Venice and Berlin. All of which have been great fun and whet my appetite for future riding jaunts.

During 2023 I've dabbled in the world of electric and run the Zero DSX-R as part of the MCN Long termer fleet. I’ve also reignited my passion for all things middleweight, writing reports for our sister publication, RiDE, on both the Triumph Tiger Sport 660 and Honda Hornet. Over the winter you’ll find me commuting to work on a Honda NC750X, I’m also planning a winter trip over to Le Touquet, for a bucket of moules and a chilled glass of Rose.
