The joys of Ducati ownership
So we set out from Bury, north towards the Trough of Bowland with the intention of going to Windemere.
Stunning weather... Amazing quiet roads... And catastrophic electrical failure!   There isn't much worse than being stranded at the side of a beautiful road with a bike that won't go. |
