Yeah I just wanted to try one out. It didnt disappoint either. I would never pay that much for it though, there is a 749s on autotrader for 1600 quid less for a start.

Needing to have a low mileage day today, we'll be heading over to Midland Superbikes and just chilling out there for the day. Plenty of bikes coming and going to look at, and people to chat to. If you're out that way, come and say hello.

Brother in law coming over to get his new GPS wired in on his viffer, then we'll be going out for a run, possibly to Ducati Coventry.

Well if you're thinking of blagging a test ride on the Multi Ralph, then unless you've pre-booked I very much doubt it'll be free. Yesterday wasn't busy and RD could have gone out on an 848 if he wasn't still an infant, but the Multi was booked all day.

Sycamores, Uppingham would be your best bet.

However DC is an interesting place to visit, especially if you go down to the workshop area.

Had a great ride today. 165 miles on Leicester and Rutlands best roads!
Nice to see Pete and Lissa at Midland Superbikes. Neil was well chuffed that you were appreciating his cans!!!! He said he is definately gonna sign up on the org and is looking forward to some org rideouts.
Not that i would know, but he seems to be very smooth out on the open road considering he only passed his test a week ago.
