    As I type this, the sun is out here on the Yorkshire cost, and whilst there's a strong breeze, there is no doubt, many of us who have taxed their bikes starting today after the winter break. I know there are many die hards who ride all year round, but I confess I'm no longer one of them. Lol I'm not heading out on two wheels today as I would imagine everyone and his dog are out there already, dusting off their machinery after a winter spent in the garage or shed. So ride safe everyone, especially today. I've taxed my STRS, but I won't be heading out until later in the week, weather permitting of course. :)

    It's wet here in Glasgow, but the next few days are forecast to be dry, so hopefully...... :)

    The bike is ready.

    Yes you are right there @johne I was out yesterday and it was a really pleasant day. Just rode around the Cotswolds for a couple of hours and back to McDonalds @Shillingford then home and loved it bike every where.

    I had my first ride of the year today. Together with a brew and a slice of cake. :) 20260303_132209(1).jpg

    They were at it last night here as well, the forecast is for low temperatures again this evening so the mobile skips with a leak at the back will be out once more I assume.:confused:
