Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Again thanks all.
He's back at home now and fast asleep. He has a couple of blood levels off so will have to change his medicines and will probably be sore for a few days but otherwise is doing well. Here he is, from a couple of weeks ago, enjoying one of his favorite outdoor activities. He genuinely loves to ride. I don't where he gets that from?

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Brilliant, must be such a relief to have him back home safe and sound Bill.
Can't imagine where he gets the love of riding from though.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
More of a brown trouser moment than a gripe. I was riding the VFR along a single track road near Llangollen towards an old mine called Worlds End.
Up ahead the road does a sharp left turn uphill and crosses a shallow ford at the same time. Not a problem thought I until entered the ford, the rocks were as smooth and as slippery as hell, it was like driving on sheet ice. I daren't brake, turn or touch the gas but managed to get across, turned and keeping enough momentum to get up the rise as well, coming to a rest against a grass bank on opposite side of the road. Phew.. Treated myself to pie and chips in the Ponderosa and had a chat with a one legged SV rider from Stoke. Then got caught in a downpour coming home. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
