Default Anyone fancy a trundle on Sunday the 8th?

Assuming it's not bucketing down, I'm tempted to take the KTM out for a proper rural shakedown.

If I can endure the tedious slog out to the home counties, anyway.

I think you've overestimated my organisational skills a bit.

You want to go to Brighton, don't you.

As it turned out, I slept til about noon, at which point it was time to do some cooking and settle down for the F1.

In my defence, I did 615 miles last weekend.

I think I used up all my annual mileage the weekend before. 550 mile round trip.

On the plus side, my new long awaited clutch is being delivered sometime this week. All I need to do then is completely overhaul the front brakes and the bike will be back to a good working order. Anyone have any idea what 12 new pistons and seals is likely to cost me?

Annual? That's a weekend.

I've got 600 miles to Chimay and back in July, and 2500 miles to Brno and back (in a roundabout fashion) in August.

After that lot, I might say I've used up my annual mileage. Maybe. On that bike, anyway.
