I went out on my bike. Decided TV was crap and i would just stuff my face with Terry chocolate Orange and Thornton's chocolates if i was at home all day.

Filled up at the petrol station and planned a route on the SatNav

Then decided to go over the bridge as the Ford was about 4 foot deep in the middle and i was on my own. Did not fancy flooding the bike and having to push it 2 miles up hill to the nearest road.

Changed the oil last night, so gave it a quick check for leaks.

Stopped for a quick rest on top of Barden Moor Area

A colour popped photo

Some of the tracks chewed up the tyres a bit

Then stopped for a rest at some reservoir in the middle of nowhere

https://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii302/ian505050/ian505050%202/DSC00644edited.jpg

Then back home just as it got dark for Jurassic Park, Mince Pies and Bucks Fizz.

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Happy as a pig in shit

absolutely stunning! You must have been grinning ear to ear! Nothing like solo in remote areas, just you and the bike..

I will change it now, i used that Avatar when setting up a BCF account as i originally only joined to troll. In my first post i was a Polish body builder on a 125 licence who wanted to buy an R1 and restrict it if i remember rightly. haha Smile

Well, I reckon I would enjoy a small cc off road bike at some point... might try trading my Ninja for one in the future.

Aww bless :wub:


The sight of a steely WR sets me off. Great machines, had a '04 450 that never let me down even with a vicious beasting. Had 7 years good service out if her.

Crying or Very sad


The WR250 feels like it has loads of power and torque so the 450 must be mental

Hey,
Drove through here to Colne to pick up my CG125.

What a beautiful place! Been meaning to go back but have never gotten round to it.

Very Jealous. Wish i had that on my doorstep.

Cheers,
Shaun.
