What Have You Done On Your Bike Today????

Yay TAB, something to remember.


Yesterday did 130-odd miles around lowland Scotland that I'm not very familiar with and it was fan-flippin'-tastic
Today reversed the 60-plus mile ride home and washed the bike, shame to put it away while the sun's still shining - but I needed bath and snooze.

Feeling like ol John Wayne today after two days of driving round the North of Ireland, Portstewart, Portrush, Coleraine etc reckon I've done about 250 miles all in all...longest I've ever done ...well chuffed with myself, aiming for longer distance the next 2 days I'm off work :)

Lets hope spares are at hand Frank.

Not a lot. Started up the gl1000 and made my general checks ready for ride to Poole bike night tomorrow.

Next I will continue looking for the cause of my front end rattle on the fjr.

A nice ride out over the last two days, Down to Poole for the Poole Bike Night.
Thanks to Stutts for putting us up, for the breakfast and lots of tea this morning.

Went to work on it this evening ha ha ha, you shoulda seen the boss's face..... considering I'm only around the corner from work these days, (as opposed to my last job where I commuted 30 mile round trip)
Wish I had filmed his reaction :)

Not much, just a 50 mile bimble after work.
Very pleasantly surprised at the surface of the Tak-Ma-Doon road (so much better than last time I rode it), beautiful views from up there and then lovely catch-up meal before opening up on the motorway home.
Must do it again, soon.

Like Izzyhill, I had a bimble to the super sausage cafe, where I met up with friends and introduced Big Ray to his first 12 incher! Lol
I had a lovely bimble back and now to get ready for a biker's bbq! Lol
Stay safe all x

Glad you all got back home safe RB :)


Nothing on bike today, apart from travel home early this morning, recovering from yesterday's long trip up the coast (where else... haha) not made for long drives me at all, too much concentration required after heavy night...pillion in future please lol :)

Thanks Lulu....it was a good day, just wet

Must try and get out and play more often...too much commuting

Quiet ride to work, got to love the kids being off school :-)

Yeah RB it was the commuting got to me at my old job last year, so much so that I almost wouldn't go out on weekends I was so sick of driving in the wet every day :( , maybe alternate between getting public transport and driving every other day? (if you can) that helped me :)


Done on bike today... a wee early morn run out to the Glens of Antrim (well only the one of them, no time to do the rest today) just for the hell of it :)

Finally started on the old R50. Stripped out the final drive only to find I had the wrong gssket. Found major oil leak on sump.
I went to my bmw man and he was closed. Still there is lots more of other things to do.
