I usually tax my bike for six months, May to October, so I took today as holiday and prayed that the sun would shine, and it did. So this afternoon/evening I have been out on the evil raspberry, spinning it up, enjoying the roads, and the lush green countryside (sorry no pics, forgot to take the camera).

Discovered The Candovers, Northington, Abbotstone and country villages and B-roads around there...absolutely glorious day. Very Happy

That first day out after the winter break, blasted out the cobwebs and totally reinstated that grin factor...made me happy to be alive!! Thumbs Up

Hey, that's cool! The blueberry and the raspberry may get to meet soon then!! Thumbs Up Laughing

It was a beautiful day and I got all my chores done, so that I can get out over the weekend - Loomies on Sunday?

We went for a spin other day - Beautifull morning and headed towards London. On the way back we took some A roads and some real old country roads (really tight bends, could only do 20 max) was really good - Winchester roads are great.
275 milles all in all. Thumbs Up

The little roads round there are lovely. I seem to remember there are some nice trails around Abbotstone too.

Just down the road from there I stumbled on a picnic area with these in a while back. Neutral

Yes, you up for it? I could go to the bike, and ride back over to Dorset and meet up with you somewhere, go for a ride out, then go to Loomies afterwards if you like??

I think Leon was talking about getting the BBQ out. Thumbs Up

I cant wait to do that. I did take mine around the estate to get used to it but waiting on my tax to arrive and have insurance sorted and all. I was so calm and happy just from that I cant wait to get out proper. Mr. Green
