Should be out again tomorrow with the in-laws in tow (Cruisers). Anyone got plans for tomorrow?
Hmmm....I was going to take it easy and do a bit of work. Whats the weather? Where and when? Ive got about 200 mile left on centre of tyre...

What he said, apart from the tyre bit.

But I would have to take it a little easy as I'm scrubbing a front in. (My old one was well done for, not alot of tread left at all, I'd forgotten how flickable the bike was; its turning I unbelievably fast again!)

Vix tells me we're supposed to meet the out-laws at high noon, that'll be in Wooton Basset. Apparently they don't want to go "too far" so I think you guys would be well advised to give it a miss, sounds like it will be a snooze-a-thon.

I had Wales on my mind, Aber at least...

Then again, I could still say b******* to it and head over to Aber anyway. Hmmmm... BBC Weather says cloudy but dry, AccuWeather says brilliant sunshine.

Decisions, decisions....

M32... yes, 3:00ish... yes, HG leathers (red n white, with the gixer blue and white)... yes, GSXR1000 K6 ... yes, seat cowl... err.. no (seat is quite small so you might have missed it). Was heading from J n S to Abergavenny being followed by a black trumpet Daytona. Where you on the bike? I did clock a blue pointy IIRC although I think that might have been on the A4174 on the way to the M32. Lots of bikes out today

Now tomorrow....

I am going to try and not go out on the bike a just have a potter about in garden etc but come lunchtime I may be bored

I did wave Beenz, but the brain was processing was that you and therefore should I turn round and try and catch you somewhere so it may not have been early enough.
