well,I have been out partying,and I had a ride earlier in the week,

but,I get bored with polishing,after topping up the battery ,I am going to wait for a dry,bright day,
to much salt about !!

we could discuss a proposed sohc club run,as mentioned before,we need to arrange a start base,
possible (cheap) accommadation,food and maybe a little evening drink ?

so,who's up for it?
suggest some dates?
general area,with some nice routes,about 70-100 miles a day ?

Today, i've been mainly repairing my oil burner. Went for a 50 mile run to test out a new pair of gloves. Not bad for £20.
Ride through London? Not nice. Did that everyday as a job for a few years.
