Oh well, summer is on it's way now, so more lovely days in the saddle to come.

I've got a weeks holiday and it took all my willpower to get on with all my chores today and not go out on the bike.... Mind you one of the chores was to put the forks back together on my Gas Gas so this weekend I'm going out and getting dirty!
