Blowing off the cobwebs!

[gruntygiggles]

Who else got out yesterday for the first time this year??? Stretchie took the Bird out last weekend, but yesterday was my first time out with him since October and I haven't had that much fun for ages!

Beautiful day, top company thanks to Gid and Mrs. Gid and all topped off with a meal and pub quiz in the local!

Can't beat it :smt038


Gid, yes, Stretchie took us home through the twisties AND along the ring road for the roundabouts....woo hoo!!!

I did notice lots of dodgy looking bikers tentatively pootering around over the weekend. Thought it must me the first wave of the summer riders :)

Glad you enjoyed it bet it was a good feeling :)

It was Fantastic and not normally Summer riders....but after the off on the Blade last Year, Dan didn't get enough miles in on this bike to get out in the bad weather. In the past he'd ride through anything.

So not only did Stretchie get out on his BB and have a meal, but you blew off his cobwebs as well? :smt101

Lovely here in Aber yesterday, I had a great time watching all the bikes ride into town while waiting for a mate, even got a nod and a smile off one which cheered me up. Nothing worse than watching lots of bikers out and about in glorious sunshine and not being able to join them :-( but still fab to watch! Lots of shiny-just-out-of-storage bikes too, very nice :mrgreen:

Some horrible man went round the BB and polished small parts of every panel.Now Manc Stretch has to finish it.

No he didn't, we got back and had just enough light left to give the dogs a good walk......SO...............

He took it to work this morning and it will currently be sat in the sun in the car park with little shiney patches in between the filth....lol

Excellent work Gid!

Yeah, the bike can shift and what you saw yesterday was Dan only taking it to about 5000rpm. I think it red lines at 15000!

Haha......did you see me touch it though? Me........holding a grab rail???

I got out Saturday for the first time this year to take the bike for it's first MOT then went for a 50 mile wander to celebrate it passing! Yesterday I managed about 80 miles (HG in Chester then across to A&D in Denbigh) and I've used it for travelling to work today.

Looks like a cracking week weather wise so I'm making the most of it.

I got out on Suzy for the first time this year, today. Very wobbly :-(
usually being the all year type, I am somewhat lacking in the confidence department, even though I've been out on the other SV a few times over the last few weeks.
I've gone back to noobie mode.
I did pass a very dead sheep though...it made me chuckle :-)

[Bluepete]

I spent the day cruising around, smiling a lot, enjoying the sunshine............. at work :(

Not jealous at all of all the bikers wizzing off into Cheshire. Oh no, not at all jealous :---)
