At last.

Sun. Decent temperatures. Roads not strewn in grit. And best of all - a bike to exploit them with.

I love days like today. I've not done anything specifically well (although a couple of wheelies felt very nice) or anything differnt to my normal Uni commute, but boy did it feel good.

Apart from when I was sat in traffic sweating into my leathers.

Roll on summer. Very Happy

I rode around the garden a bit on my new crm.

Its very different to every bike i've ever ridden, but rather nice.

Just need to sell VX, so I can insure, mot, and tax it.

Went to Bridgenorth today (day off work), was cool, quite a few bikes about, passed that pub The Wheel on the way, never been in. Surprised it was a nice day today, weather forecast told me it would rain, can't complain Smile I have some time off work soon so i'll be riding around more, any of you guys head to The Wheel ?

Great day yesterday, unexpected, thought there would be rain after seeing the forecast on Monday. I managed to get out for a blast around the country B's for lunch and did a 30 mile detour around a similar route on the way home.

John - Know what you mean about it smelling like summer, even got a few fly splats!

Hi
Woop, was a very nice day yesterday. Went for a blast to and from college, almost got thouse winter chicken strips off now. If only I had my leathers on it would have felt like summer. And yes i could smell the summer smell too. Maybe its a biker thing we have evoled so that we know when to go for a blast without having to get up and open the curtains Mr. Green .

Well while you lot had great weather... Up here in Scotland I was struggling to actually stay on my own side of the road. It was raining and extremely windy. Got blown all over the place. Couldn't even take it past 30mph without fear I'd run off the road. Shocked

Was at the wheel on wednesday, hundred or so bikes (may be more - but basically the main car park was full). So looks like the wheel is starting to pick up again. Very Happy
