Well Saturday was a fine warm sunny day so the CB750F1 was taken out of winter hibernation and cleaned up (dusted), oil change and ride planned for Sunday. However the weather had other ideas, it's been raining ever since, today is Tuesday, hopefully tomorrow I can get out and about.

Cheers

Dennis.

I really miss riding that road. I used to do Crowborough to Eastbourne then along the Beachy Head Road, over the downs by the stunning Seven Sisters along to Brighton and back to Crowborough. Never, ever got bored of that ride.

Nothing's as bad as welsh.  The welsh Gestapo have made all the signs welsh first.  Can't read the sodding things any more,  Political correctness gone mad.  If I've offended anyone - good.

Compo's cafe, Holmfirth yesterday. I seem to have forgiven them for chucking me out of their porch and making me eat my chips in the rain last year - a man has to eat!

I like all the pictures with the bikes out for a run.

His interest in food John,  does that make him a "hairy biker"?

He'll have to get the pots and pans out to prove his provenance  ;)
