ima
jumped on the bike at 6am and set off for work, a little slippy under foot me thinks
first really major bend is a long sweeping right hander, must have gone in a little too hard and low, the back end starts to slip so i flicked on opposite lock and feathered the throttle controlling the skid, nice to know i've not lost my touch eyebrow.gif and powered out the other side.







































then i woke up and really rode to work, 20mph all the way, wobble wobble,

Took the bike into work this morning. 8am start in Maidenhead, so a blast doen the M4 at 7.45. All i could see on the other side was nose to tail cages...

Why do they do this every single day of their lives......

Can someone please explain it to me cause i am buggered if i can understand.

Theres me doin 70 (ahem) in lovely sunlight, not to much traffic. Got there and wasn't to cold, thermal long johns and thermal inner gloves.......


Who could want a better start to the day.......


And tomorrow.....gotta catch a train into London at 8am........

Get a refund on your train ticket, put on yer thermals and bike it. You have said yourself that the journey is more satisfying.
Choice, being in a tin of sardines, open rd n fresh air.

Nay contest.

I didn't go out on the bike today, although I was working on it to try and get the speedo fixed. It's warmer riding the bike, than it is working on it. sniffle.gif


No speedo for me for the next two weeks, while I get some parts ordered. sad1.gif I have to ride everywhere in fourth gear, so I can tell what speed I'm doing. mad1.gif
