Ridden it! did a recce. of Saturdays route. What a corker, bit of everything in there. And the scenery, wow! I've been to places today that 98% of Lancastrians don't know exist.

Put up loads of shelves and cupboards in my new garage to store all my crap and the bike stuff.
Route sounds good Terry, looking forward to it.

Re: what have you done to the bike today
Sounds fantastic Tes.
Nothing done to the bike today, still under cover, however it did get a lick and a promise on Sunday along with tyres pumping up, Scottoiler filled and the chain looks alright
It was only a couple months ago it had its' last wash, so hopefully this extra activity isn't going to attract the clouds

Re: what have you done to the bike today
What's with this grumpiness thing? I'm only grumpy cos I'm always waiting for yoos! Either your bikes broken down, or you've stopped to take even more pictures, or you've fallen in love with an alpine digger driver. No wonder I'm grumpy.

I'll have you know that alpine digger driver was driving a CAT'erpillar.
And he had lovely eyes.
I'll be on my new slow bike so you really will need to wait on me.
Luv ya.

Re: what have you done to the bike today
Looking forward to seeing you Sat morning, I think that makes about 12 riders, nice manageable number.

Re: what have you done to the bike today
Just changed the oil, oil filter and air filter. I have a feeling this servicing is going to get expensive considering I've clocked up over 6,000 miles in less than 2 months

Re: what have you done to the bike today
I should have learnt by now of the perils of cleaning my bike before a ride-out but it was a tad too dirty for the mechy to work on it - so it got another lick and a promise.

Re: what have you done to the bike today
Oil spark plugs and filters all changed today bit of a scare when a brand new plug snapped off inside then cleaned the exup valve and all but one bolt snapped off too.

Ducati, Thundercat and RD have all had a quiet week. Did 195 miles in 2 days on my little Suzuki 125, great fun!
