well had lovely weather, had lots of domestics over SV electrics. Shouting over airboxes, grumbling over plastics....yeah what a day.
But now hopefully i get to spend all week on the bike, whilst everyone else is at work

Yes. Closes 1 April. Only the cafe - Harry Tuffins supermarket is the landlord and they're jacking the rent up for a new lease so present tenant is quitting. It's a real shame.

I wasn't riding but did have a very nice cross country drive to look at an SV...and I decided to buy it, going to get it delivered next week hopefully. The fact I was overtaken by dozens of bikes on the Fosse way on route (including a mentalist really going some on a speed triple ) pretty much made my mind up before I got there.

Soon I will have a yellow curvy

didnt get the fairing off, well not both sides, but got one panel off so that enabled me to drain the oil....then the next problem was that of getting the old oil filter off....grrr. some monkey has tightened it to a ridiculous degree.

therefore no riding for me sunday. saturday i got a few miles in so yay
