OUT AND ABOUT 2021
« on: February 24, 2021, 01:31:54 PM »
At last, the weather was great, warm at 18°, the copious amount of mud on the roads was as least dry, so parts collection and local deliveries took place on the CD250u's.
It felt lovely. A quick stop off at the bikers watering hole for a coffee break as well. Just perfect.

I found I desperately needed tomatoes for the pizza.

So I supported a local farm shop.

A very nice 30mile round trip.

An absolute pleasure.

Feel so much better

I took Grahams 750/4 Mongrel that he built a couple of years back for an MOT this afternoon. I made the most of it and went the very, very long way round 😁😁😁 Nice ride out actually, a bit chilly but felt so good. This is one of the bikes that will be up for sale soon as we really have run out of space now and can't build any more bikes until we make room. I'll be very sad to see it go as it is an absolute blast to ride and just so much fun.

Beautiful day here yesterday. I took the CB900f out for a spin around East and North Herts, stopping at Great Chishill windmill for lunch. The bike wouldn't restart when I stopped for petrol ( a couple of Kind motorists gave me a quick push ... nice of them as its damned heavy), when I got home it only showed 3 volts on the multimeter, but then continued to start which seems a bit odd. More investigation needed.

Great day though - sadly my lunch stop piccie  is too pixel heavy so I can't attach?

A Journo from MCM broke the plastic seat fairing on my CB900FZ pushing it.

He wrote a good review though…

What a stunning day for a nice long ride. Sun shining and lovely and warm. The main roads in our part of Lincs was a ratio of about 10 bikes to 1 car and much fun was being had by all 😁😁😁
This pic was taken up in the Wolds where the roads were very quiet. I'm on Millie the 550 Mongrel and Graham is on the 750 Mongrel.

1st ride out this year on Hettie and what a cracking ride it was as well. Beautiful weather here in Lincs , no cars on the roads, only what seemed like millions of bikes. Hettie is running spot on. It was just perfect.
