At precisely 7.30pm this evening the coal burner ROARED back into life, So, for n ow we're back up and mobile, paint nearly completed for the third time and this time it all goes back to "the" workshop where my good friend and I shall administer the proper (once and for all) and fully functioning paint protection system.
Then it's up , up and away.

We ride once a month. Our rides take 3 - 5 hours including stops and are generally held rain or shine.
