Default Thanks For The Memories

The time has come for us to hang up our spurs, and say 'Goodbye' to our biking days.

Pete's eyesight is still not 'Bike-safe', making any sort of fun riding far too risky. He was also diagnosed two days ago with a blood clot that stretches from his calf to his knee that required immediate teatment, and although this in itself wouldn't affect his riding, it's just another indicator that maybe it's time to stop. We've managed over 120k miles together and never had an off. It would be really bloody silly to have one now. So the Duke is up for sale, and we're going to stick with four wheels from now on. An MR2 isn't a bike, but fun in its own way.

We have had some fantastic times with our fellow Org-ers, and would like to thank everyone who made owning the SV, and later the Duke, such a pleasure. There are some truly nice people on this site who we have been happy to spend time with.

Take care, everyone, and keep it rubber side down. I will be watching, so no more crashes!
