Finish for the hols at 3pm today and its my final bike commute.

Off to work in The Kingdom in the new year. Borrowed a motah to get me to my chauffeur.... ok, bus driver.

Looking forward to stripping the ol' 7 winter veteran SV down and getting handy with the toothbrushes and black enamel, the autosol and auto glym and maybe a set of matching tyres([-o<) as a Xmas treat.
Its got scars but this bike could not be killed by me or my fellow commuters. Original battery, started everyday.

I'll wobble out (& moan about "the cold") for an ice cream in Largs soon as Chucker gets it posted.;)

For now though its, "Pipe N' Slippers for Mr Stramasher Please!" :cheers:

Enjoy your commuting retirement. Personally I did not miss it when I eventually got a car and relegated the bike to weekend use. I also enjoy getting out on the bike now when I get the chance.

Hint Hint!!! LOL!!!

Might be the start of March, we'll see, might try for something a little different this year we always do Rest and be thankful. But it seems to be closed more than its open at the moment.

Works PC doesn't let me use google maps anymore so doing routes at lunch is now out :(

I commuted Glasgow to Rosyth on a ZXR750 no bother.

Of course, I was 24 years old...
