 Didn't need the waterproofs in the end. It's now a gloriously warm and sunny spring day. Just been sat outside with a cuppa and a toastie, watching the pond skater and a waterboatman sculling about in my pond. |

Re: The All New Megathread
Ironing done. Just back from the Honda dealer. My centre stand is not in the faulty batch.

Re: The All New Megathread
It relates to the welding on a lug that the spring connects to. If it fails the stand could fall while riding.

Re: The All New Megathread
Morning all. Weather looks to be good today. I'm pleased about that as I'm leading a walk from Mitchells Fold to Bromlow Callow and back. It's all quite high and exposed so not very nice in poor weather.
How is the day looking for everyone else? |

Re: The All New Megathread
Jealous. My day consists of work but I will be enjoying the fact the car is being charged from solar on this fine day.

Re: The All New Megathread
Off out for a walk shortly myself, just locally, then a spin on the bike.
Mitchells Fold is on of the spookiest places I've ever visited, around the stone circle there's a definite 'presence'. |

Re: The All New Megathread
Lovely terrain around the Fold. Some of the ancient stones are a short walk away and well worth the views you get when searching them out. Know what you mean about the vibes - it's a magical place for sure.

Re: The All New Megathread
Morning all. Cracking walk yesterday and the weather really picked up once we started. That northerly wind was still cold though.
Off to do a spot of gardening for someone this morning, hoping for dry weather! |

Re: The All New Megathread
That Northerly was cold, wasn't it? Luckily, over the weekend I scored a great charity shop find: a lightweight quilted down jacket with no hood, which is light and thin enough to wear as a mid-layer under my biking jacket. Just £6, in perfect condition.
Tested it with a run to the Ponderosa and with my heated vest on I was actually a bit too warm, even with that cold wind and a 70mph windchill. |
