Garry's hinting at the IAM training. .

I fitted a combined performance restrictor kit and anti-hooligan device that I can't work out how to remove...... Her name is Wendy! .

Aberdeen?!?! I'm originally a Manchester lad so it's be City all the way I'm afraid, despite the red bike!

Ahhhh! I think I'll wing it!

I did that run last night, through Strathaven and down to Ayr. Great fun on some of the roads, although i got stuck behind a lorry and a train of cars for a while, and I also set off a bit late so the sun was really low in the sky and gave me a bit of bother cresting hills. Bit cold by the time I hit the M77 too, but really enjoyed it. I was a bit of a wuss on a lot of the roads though as I only passed my test on Friday and didn't want to have a bump or get points so early on in my biking career!! Saw some bikers and they were really giving it some so there's potential to improve!
