Yessiree, got me FULL 6F today! Hooray.

In the pissing down wet, the sun had barely woken up! Twas a piece of piss though - left here, right there ... u-turn here, hazard check there and at last done and muddied.

Thanks for all the advice, laughter and group rides through the folk here on KB. You've made the last 12 months fly past and it's been great. Now I can go shopping

.

Here's to another 12 months, and another and another and another ... you get the picture

.

Looks like I got carried away in my excitement. Better go and change it now.

I dunno, Black Bandit's a bit short sighted in retrospect but a small stretch of the imagination could expand it's meaning - might need to rat the bike I buy

And start wearing a bandana over my helmet

There's no substitute for clocking up km on the road. Closed environment training certainly has its place and has aided my slow speed control no end but IMHO there are no short cuts. Ya just gotta do the time in the saddle and experience a few "oh shit" moments.
