Re: Who is still about?
I did a Trackday up at Knockhill and managed a go over the dukes pass on Sunday. Was good to finally see some bikes on the roads again.

Re: Who is still about?
Went out for a blast today. Roads are a complete state. Weird since we haven't been able to go any place for for what feels like years. Oh and I sold the MT10 and bought a Tuono :-)

Re: Shed Build
Thanks.
The shed will be located less than a metre from the boundary wall so the maximium height is 2.5m according to the guidelines.
