As Peter my accountant said to me (before he went on holiday). I could claim my bike as capital allowance AND get 20p a mile for every journey I make for work. As we have seven sites, soon to be nine and I work from home as well sometimes that is a lot of miles a week.
Of course I have to check out the competition at nights as well, as part of my job. So quite a lot of my evening social journeys could be classified as a work journey. (Just no house parties.)
I believe that you can also get some kind of meal allowance as "fuel". Although this would be pretty pointless for me as we have a superb "staff canteen".
He is away on holiday at the moment though so I haven't actually sorted any of this out. But will let you know what comes of it.
