Next time try Woods in Abergele, a bit of a trek but a hell of a test ride ! They practically force you take their bikes out too .....
OK it's old stock, but I had this brand new Speed R delivered Friday. All in all, the deal I done wasn't the deal of the century, but it wasn't too bad either. The bike is just phenomenal, absolutely love it. Trying to get the machine run in by the end of the week, so I can give it some proper welly. Managed 300 country miles between Friday and today (Tuesday). Might just do it if the weather stays fair. Been to Finchingfield in Essex today, glorious weather and a half decent pub lunch...life could be worse....
Think it was earlier and you were going out of Southend. Could have been about 10 when I was walking my dogs down A127 b4 Progress Road
