Happy spring.

Goodbye and fuckoff winter.

Hello spring. Today is the first day of spring 2016 and it is very sunny here in Yorkshire.

I thought the one of the Scottoiler was very good to be fair. Nicely lit, you could really zoom right in.

They all get stretched in my browser... looks like a super low, fat bike.

The pictures are normal, it's bodyguard's distorted reality.

Looks fine on imgur, looks fine on Firefox on Windows, looks todger-pic on Chrome on Linux. How is he even doing that?

But the most important part is missing, warmth. All a blue sky with the occasional ray of sunshine does is make me feel less like "ugh not another commute in this <insert swear word>" before commuting and makes it somewhat more bearable. Still using my balaclava while riding so isn't anywhere near weather that might actually excite me and make me want to ride for longer than I need to.

Commuting all year round, riding a 125 and the fact I haven't ridden any new routes / roads or discovered anywhere I want to visit on the bike would be the three main reasons I have no desire to go on any social rides thus far.

On a side note at least there's more riders out recently. I smile each time I see someone out and about on their sports bike or sunny day ride hooning around at speed and enjoying themselves, minus the "look how big my willy is" harley rider that decides to overtake me at speed just after a mini roundabout and then get stuck behind a car just up the road at the next mini roundabout.

Alpinestar SMX 1.1 or a decent pair of ankle boots / a pair of lightweight summer gloves will probably be the only things to add to my gear collection this year.

.. I'll be back once it's warm enough to put on my RST Tractech evo jacket and tuck into my tiddlers tank and pretend I'm going faster than 40.. 50 at a push.

Did like the Google animation for today though...

How do you do that anyway, from phone to BCF thread?

I post the pictures to imgur from my phone HTC M8. It makes me very happy and glad certain users find it annoying they look fine to me.

Exactly as displayed above. It takes it from the stretched look to an actual solid size, downsizing but keeping the ratios.
