Out and about 2022
« on: January 01, 2022, 01:32:31 PM »
Happy New Year everyone. Made the most of todays mild(er) temperatures. Roads very wet and muddy here but it didn't stop us crazy riders getting out for a good ride and a cuppa.

give over Julie,  ;D ;D ;D ;D

we all know Trig has Cuban heels on his bike boots, doesnt everyone?? ::)
 I'm just suprised he doesnt tuck his bows in, I find they dont get half as bad if you tuck them into your stripy socks that you roll over the top of the boot!............. ;D

I managed a few miles on the CB750 and the BMW this afternoon.

15c and dry roads, though damp was in the air. Anyway, it was good to be out again after nearly three weeks with no riding due to rain, frost and fog!

Just done about 20 miles on the 500 - very mild. Just spoiled by a tail gater driving 6 foot from my mudguard for a few miles - when I signalled him to back off, he just looked bewildered. Oblivious!

Happy New Year All,

Managed to take advantage of the good weather and get out on a few bikes today including the 500/4, lets hope this is a good omen for the rest of 2022  :) [ Guests cannot view attachments ] [ Guests cannot view attachments ] [ Guests cannot view attachments ]

Where is that Martyn?

My daughter loves Lizards so she'd be made up visiting that place.

That's Toad Hall next to Ainsdale beach (just south of Southport), it's just been recently painted like that. If you go park legally as the Traffic Wardens are keen to issue tickets!

Not far from me that, I've been past that hundreds of times as well. My daughter will love that.

Thanks, yeah it's a S7 of 1950 vintage, front brake is worse than a 70's CB but despite its age has enough performance to deal with today's traffic.

   As a few on here like aircraft
    We have been away for few days. It's not often you get chance to get in one of these. Unfortunately due to a quite recent  hip
    replacement i couldn't make the final step from the ladder down into the cockpit so she smugly did it.  We have been promised a
    ride in it  later in the year.
    A little history
