95 miles of dry roads, wet roads (including the brook running down Butterton's cobbled main street), muddy roads and snow covered ones in the Peak District. Huge fun, every last one of them.
Replacement frt indicator assembly just arrived. After dropping the bike against the garage wall for the second time, I'm around £140 lighter, again! Same side, same outcome. Ouch! Thinks! Time to sell my body😆. Second thoughts, that wouldn't raise enough for a gallon of unleaded.😟
Pushed it out to clean it but the sun was shining, roads dry and 10degrees Celsius. No brainer, a few jolly miles and one (still) dirty bike back in the garage.
Pushed it out. Stood and admired it. Rode it. Playtime! Smiled from ear to ear. Back to bed in it went. Forecast looks good for tomorrow so intend to repeat above. Pure therapy!
I went for a ride to the Lakeside Cafe in Stowmarket and back to London just over 170 miles round trip, nice weather with just a little bit of mist in Essex.

Met up with some others at the Ace Cafe, then moved onto Jenners Cafe in Taplow for food before heading up to Hell Fire Caves for a afternoon coffee or three
