I'm safe back home now, nice ride in Sussex.

Tried to convince ET and Sarah to book a test ride on this and ask for finance but they resisted. It was really light, maybe they filled the tyres with helium.



Got my front wheel a tiny bit off the ground when I opened the throttle on the crest of a humpback bridge on the A272, after ignoring ET/Sarah's warning to slow down.

Fuel light went solid just as I got into Guildford.

Thanks ET, a blast on the bike is just what I needed.

Meh...no point wasting a bike on Sarah.

Better to start her on a nice 125.

Glad you had fun - it was a nice little run. As for that bridge, I just had to warn you that we were about to slow down because I always get a thump from the pillion seat if I go over it fast
