You might expect roaring motorbikes to dominate the roads in the rolling hills of the countryside and rural parts of Britain. But you'd be wrong.

This week, the motorbike capital of Britain was revealed - as Hammersmith and Fulham.

According to the latest figures from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA), the borough has around 4,340 motorbikes.

That means motorbikes make up 8.7% of all licensed vehicles - two and a half times more than the national average of 3.5%.

Only the Isles of Scilly (which you can't take your car to!) has more motorbikes at 10.1%.

The list of the most biker-heavy parts of mainland Britain is dominated by London boroughs - presumably because the congestion charge does not apply to motorbikes.

Kensington and Chelsea was also a popular place for the two-wheel vehicles, with motorbikes making up 6.8% of all licensed vehicles.

Elsewhere, the Isle of Wight (6.7%), Plymouth (5.7%), Kingston upon Hull (5.1%), Torbay (5%), North Lincolnshire (4.9%), York (4.9%) and Poole (4.8%) all made the top twenty.

Slough saw the lowest percentage of motorbikes, at 0.9%, followed by Glasgow (1.2%) and Birmingham (1.5%).
