Out and about on the pair of Honda CD250 U's today. From home up to Robin Hood's Bay and Whitby and back via the A169 across the North York Moors, which looked stunning with the Heather in flower, down to Pickering, down through Beverley and back over the Humber. 230 mile round trip. Brilliant day out. [ Guests cannot view attachments ] [ Guests cannot view attachments ] [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Yes John, we are very lucky. They forecast rain tomorrow so I will do some house chores and Graham can catch up on work. Ride whilst the sun shines, everything else can wait for a rainy day  ;D ;D ;D

Some cracking photos there Julie.  Retirement is obviously agreeing with you.
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

Yes Mike, retirement is good, busy but good. Just a shame I have to wait another 11 years before I get the money back I gave the Government for 38 years....my Pension.
I did just about manage to get half a view of the CD's in the bottom right of the first picture, photography is definitely not a strong point if mine !!!

Walk Paul, I was on a bike following trigger hammering down the hill, tourists jumping out the way, parents clutching their children, shop owners giving us dirty looks. It is hard to catch trigger on a CD250, ask John Webley  ;D ;D ;D
A bit slower coming up :)
