The Random Rideout Pictures

I can just picture you guys all standing around waiting while he hiked into the weeds to get "that perfect shot", Steve! And I have to admit I can picture it because I've been the hiker.

Random trip tp Boston, Lincs. Went from Northampton via Stamford and stopping at Spalding on the way. On the way back, stopped at a snack van and met a biker who was on the way from Corby to Grimbsy to see his dad who has COPD and double pneumonia. He said that it wasn't related to COVID. Let's hope that he finds his dad as well as can be expected.

You are right to proud of that work of art, my friend. It's really something special.

 

Don't be jealous Marky but here is my MK 111 after being hit by a post office van in Cardiff in about 1982 on the way to an England Wales rugby match.

 

Just back from a 4 day adventure through 5 of the 6 New England states with my son. First day was great, but rain the next two days and cold and foggy the last. Was able to get a couple of pics though.
1st; checking GPS coordinates in Mass.
2nd; Quiet little cemetery in New Hampshire, where my folks and little brother are buried
3rd; an interesting sign in Lynchville Maine. All those countries are actually towns in Maine
4th,5th,6th; some shots of the Presidential Mountain Range in New Hampshire. The 5th pic shows Mt.Washington hiding in the clouds. We were going to ride to the summit, but on this day, it was 17* and snowing at the summit, so we decided to wait 'til next year

 

On our way home, we crossed this
