    more liked introduced itself politely. Such a clean cut, polite bike and every time you look at the speedo your are doing 40k faster than you thought you were doing. Very British. Even felt like a latte by the time we got to Ashhurst!

    Hit the saddle later on and clocked up 10000 miles on the track on the way back
    On ya for the 10,000 mark. Nicely done. And good company and chat made it easier to work on the Honda. I even got to hit it twice with a large hammer with Sarah watching on the pretence that I couldnt move something.

    no need. you are coming so if it does break down (which even though I fixed it, it is still a honda so still possible) we can throw it on the back of the concours14.

    rang mechanic this aft for the weekly update & he said the magic words .. she is ready .. just about fell off my seat

    5pm .. sent a few texts .. 86 working late but Rottieguy was keen for a ride .. so race home after work get kitted up with the new leather pants & great nite for trying out the tinted visor, thanks to colin for the ride down to pick her up .. (seen her parked up waiting for me as I drove home) & ride plan was hatched .. up to ashhurst out to colyton and back across to palmy for a hot choccy

    well damn it the smile would not leave on the ride .. took a few ks to get in the groove .. its been tooooo damn long without her

    awesome nite for a ride .. leather pants comfy & fit great, tinted visor did the business .. was a bit worried coming around a shaded corner into full sunlight & possibility of sunstrike .. but no worries ..

    great drink/ food at cafe cuba as per normal

    ahhhhhhhhhhhh nuffing like feeling the stresses of the last few weeks disappear

    now sat off to uncle B's seat unveiling, and toy run on sunday .. so a few ks to do in the next week or so ready for the coast to coast ride on the 8th

    Have to Karma ... Justice catches up eventually !!

    Yay I am so pleased for you. Now hope you sent the motorbike gods to my guys, maybe I will have mine sooner than expected as well.

    You sound so much happier Sandra, good to see.

    Hmm, I may be wrong (often am) but does'nt that clash with the coast to coast?
    I'll have to have a look see, theres a thread on the coast to coast round here somewhere.
