Nope.

But a cold tyre, damp corner with no geip and too much right hand almost resulted in a spill counter thread!

Luckily the back end snapped back into line!

Had a nice spin out today and met a nice old boy at a set of traffic lights on a mint '97 Triumph Bonnie, his first ride out since the shit weather.
He looked at mine and said 'those things are meant to be a bit quick aren't they?'
We rode together for a few miles and he was quick enough for me. Shocked
I was quite happy to sit behind and listen to the chug. Thumbs Up

Went around Burnley, Bury and the surrounding area.

No pictures mind. Was freezing, too hilly over this way.

A quick run about Uxbridge, Pinewood studios, Black Park and some smaller lanes nearby.

Mounted a Ixus 75i to a suction cup. Naffing suction cup was dire. No damage to camera.

Focused on entirely the wrong thing, but quite like the Tachometer close up Thinking

Note to self. Need prettier indicators..... Embarassed

I was up in Uxbridge sorting my bank account out at around 2. I parked my gold/silver ZX6R round the side of that church.

I used to go around Black Park but now the roads have sunk in to disrepair with dirt all over them. I tend to go through Denham up towards Amersham/Aylesbury now.

Got up and decided to nip down the Quatt Cafe at half eight this morning, was sunny here, got just through Wombourne and boom, Mist, couldn't see any further that twenty feet infront of me, got to the cafe and there was ice on my gloves, crotch and thighs/knees...

Walked in and the twelve or so people there looked at me like I was mental, ten minutes later another bloke turned up on a BMW I think it was, then an hour or so later three others turned up, by then I'd drunk eight cups of tea so came back...

No pic's, seemed pointless when you couldn't see anything of note...

Don't think I took the roads Rowey would ride on but still had fun around Denham today. Very muddy roads and lanes. Hayes resident, generally never come out of London any further. Trees still confuse me, greenery stuns me, and I have no idea how slippery muddy roads are ^^

This road is called Froggy Lane. FROGGY LANE! I wanted to ride it cause of the name alone! Alas flooding got the better of Froggy Lane. Crying or Very sad

Buggered off to Stratford then Quatt cafe, bit cold but a good turnout. As always, a good cuppa & even better Sausage & Bacon sarnie.

Glastonbury to Portland and back today. My first solo longish trip. Fookin freezing fingers, hellish sidewind across Chesil Beach (it felt like it was going to blow my wheels out from under me) and I got bad clutch hand before getting home:
