    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    I have my Bro' staying so we just did a quiet little trip me on the VFR Mrs merv on the back and my Bro' riding her DR650SE and we just went to Lake Ferry and back for lunch. Pub was doing a roaring trade and had to shut down food orders at about 2pm because it couldn't cope with demand and the wait went out to 1.5 hrs. We got our orders in just before a large crowd surged into the place. The fish there was nice and fresh. Only two other bikes there, a Harley and a Triumph. Weather as Wilber says was fantastic.
    Cheers

    Thanks to Bill for the guided tour round the back of Martinborough. Fantastic weather and a great opportunity to get a few open road k's under the belt.
