    Likewise. I find myself trying to plan spins in between our downpours! Had 50min yesterday between them after work and made the most of it!

    I can’t complain, as it’s been pretty good overall. We actually had some warm weather for a while. Then the rains came back. Now it’s just a mixed bag.

    Lovely evening ride around Lancashire and Cumbria this evening including a photo stop at Devils Bridge for the Biker Down thread and a brew just up the road at Middleton.
    Two of us hit something VERY slippy on one bend, fortunately we stayed upright but there was some clenching going on!

    Wouldn't it be nice if we could share our dry and wet weather so we'd both have a better balance, Steve?! :sun::cool::eek:

    I’m sooo jealous. No track in my neck of the woods. I dream of doing a track day in the future.

    I had an issue with my brakes juddering a bit under heavy braking. So have stripped the callipers and cleaned up the [pads again. I then cleaned the discs as well and then I noticed my front tyre is over 7 years old! It looks hardly worn but will be changing before my next track day in July.

    We should have been over in Canada last June, rebooked for this June, which has now been cancelled. So hopefully will be over next June. We'll give you a wave, as we are coming over to Vancouver.

    Yes definitely! We could meet for a ride. I’m on Vancouver island and there are some fantastic rides here as well.

    Just got home. My ride home was just as cold as my ride out. The temperature on the bike showed 9-10 degrees but I was cold everywhere. I just googled Windchill and no wonder I was cold just take a look at the chart. I may have been doing slightly more than the max 60 mph speed on the chart. …..:cold_sweat::cold_sweat: Effectively -20 ……

    Roads were a bit moist at first, ride back home was therefore more spirited and fun.

    Had a great two days on the bike Monday and Tuesday. From home to Settle and onto Ribblhead, Hawes, Sedburgh, Orton, Hartside Pass, Hawick and a lap of Kielder Forest on day one. Then across to Consett to the hotel. Day 2 consisted of a run into Barnard Castle, Stokesley, Helmsley and Malton and then onto home. Plenty of miles and a bit tiring but well worth it.

    Had a wonderful trip trough Germany, Austria, Switserland and Italy, roughly 3700 km’s in 11 days. Drove over Stelvio, Reissenpas, Furkapass, Timmelsjoch, Silvretta, Garmisch, and God knows how many hairpins, but enjoyed every centimeter of it. Can’t wait for the next trip
