    I should have added in the title ' going out on two wheels' I'm undecided myself. The weather forecast is good,but as it is a Bank Holiday, I'm thinking I might stay home and try and sort the garden out instead. Living in a touristy area, there was a prominent Police presence out and about locally yesterday. Being retired, I have the luxury of being able to go out when I like, so I hope I can go for a few rides mid week instead. What are your motorcycling related plans for Holiday Monday?

    Had to travel about 20 miles to look at a house today so took the bike for a spin, first time since lock down. Just did there and back to blow away the cobwebs. Won't be out tomorrow.

    I'm in Scotland, so still locked down. I believe that in England there's a special dispensation for trips to Durham and Barnard Castle, but I would need to get from home to Gretna first, so I think I'll stay at home.

    This may upset some who interpret the guidance differently, but I'll be obeying as I understand it and staying home today.
