No sorn for me, not much point, the tax is due in February anyway.

I fancy a few ride outs on clear crisp winter days.

Oh Wow, Tec, where was that taken?

I won't be SORNing either bike, in fact put the new gel seat on the Tiger today, and the DRZ's battery is currently charging.

I did ride Evie M's scooter today, now that was a laugh! I felt like a learner, kept trying to change gear, but there was no pedal!

No. If my bike was SORNed, then I'd have to drive, which in London is often the worst possible option.

If I were a Sunday biker, I might feel different. But my bike is also a very practical and usable piece of transport, and, as pointed out above, if there were an opportunity for a bit of leisure winter biking but the bike was unusable, I'd be sad to miss it.

Even though I now have a car, I won't be SORNing the bike. Like others have said, I'd be gutted if there was a good day and I couldn't go out on it. Hope to rack up a few miles, it's good practice, and helps keep my biking in shape so I'm not wobbling around come spring.
