Morning all. Very wet here and rain forecast all day.
Currently watching the live Suzuki EICMA press conference. Just waiting to get past the self congratulatory stuff to see if there is any mention of the rumoured new SV. There is indeed. In fact it was the only bike launched at the press conference.

Morning all. Just getting light here now and the weather looks good for the day. Heading out for a walk with Mabel and a friend in about 30 minutes, then back to get my tools together for a repair café in Oswestry this afternoon.
I've used the bike quite a bit over the last few days and it's now filthy, so I need to find the time to get out and clean it off later. What's everyone up to this weekend?

Been planning CCTV camera installation, now waiting the lads input re signal strength before I start drilling! Off to the greenhouse to empty it for the winter.

Just had a lovely walk in the woods with Beau. Poor lad has had a bit of a cooped up week with stuff going on, so he was racing around letting off steam.
Enjoying the sunshine. |

Headed up to Norfolk this morning. Been sorting out the garden at mum's as well as the odd chore she cannot do anymore, like reaching the smoke detector to install a new battery. I can be useful sometimes.

Managed to get out on the bike today taking advantage of the sunshine. Not much photography today but lots of goat tracks were explored. Bike now needs a good bath.

Is anyone planning to visit Motorcycle Live next week? My leave has been approved so I'm going to head up on the Wednesday. Should hopefully get to see the new GX variant, which I'm very much looking forward to.

I haven't been for years. It used to be good for getting bargains on gear but that died out. I think this year could be good with so many new models to see.
