I had a little blast on the new toy yesterday, disappeared when Mrs.H wasn't looking.

Local roads with many roundabouts........

Lovely day- got my first pleasure ride for weeks! Only did about 50 miles (quick spin after the F1 and shops- the usual circuit of esher, cobham, newlands, boxhill and home again).

Boxhill and Newlands were rammed with bikes. Some lovely bikes too. Saw a lovely pointy, naked thou- yellow with a black stripe down it and nice sounding cans.

A few Vincents at Newlands. Lovely.

But traffic- it's been dire all weekend. Grrr!

I was waaaaay too hungover to be out on the bike yesterday but really happy to get out today - longest solo ride I've done since passing and it was great fun - can you see the grin??
