Rex Features

Angelina Jolie's ride to the rescue in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider has been named the best ever 'motorcycle movie moment’.

The scene beat Steve McQueen's chase to the Swiss border in classic movie The Great Escape in the poll by bike insurers Bennetts.

Tom Cruise finished third for his ride to see love interest Kelly McGillis in Top Gun, followed by bike scenes in The Matrix Reloaded and Terminator 2.

Benetts spokesman Mark Fells said: “There are some much-loved biking greats in the mix and it seems that bikers have always had a soft spot for Lara Croft.”
