No chance here cold, wet, and windy, salt and mud and cow muck etc on the roads.

Sleet here this morining too.

Even if the old bod was`nt buggered, the bike would be, so its staying tucked up again.

Roll on some dry, calm, and warmer weather again.

Well yesterday was windy but only the odd shower so i got 20 miles in finding another couple of byways using cycle routes but they've been chewed up by the 4x4 brigade so didn't explore solo.

Now at 3am listening to the pouring rain i realise i forgot to cover the bike :roll:

And oddly enough, it went almost exactly like that!
Not many bikes parked, but a chap parked next to me on a big BMW GS and said he wished he still had his Burgman for days like that :)
Good grief it was windy though on the high bits - Max was using most of my side of the road at times...still averaged 100mpg though.

Bright sunshine here. Went down town on my MTB. It's a steep climb back but I flew up with the tailwind.
