A run round the Cambridgeshire countryside followed by a bacon & egg buttie and tea at the Triumph dealer in Eye. Bit nippy on the digits but well worth it.

A quick blast down to the Holly View cafe, then on to the Oakdene for breakfast. On to East Peckham and Yalding followed by Maidstone, then cut across country to Rainham to give my daughter a surprise visit. The cobwebs are now truly gone

First off: Happy birthday to Jinx....they seem to come around quicker every year!
Went out on the Spyder today....just to get some more experience riding it especially through the corners! The 'Beast' is certainly different! Gradually getting there though. Only about 30 miles today....I was waiting at a light and the guy in a car behind me actually got out of his car and asked me what it was! I only had time to tell him that it was a trike made in Canada...then the light changed and I was off! In the mirror saw the bloke running back to his car as there were quite a few cars queued behind him! LOLz.

A short runout on the trike to Hatton country world, took me sister in law on the back for the 1st time, she is used to being pilly as her hubby is a biker, she said she ended up with a numb ass n thinks she is going deaf from my noisy trike........................

Brilliant Minnie. You got there in the end. I suppose we will struggle keeping up with you now. Sounds like another trip around the Lakeland passes is in order. Was brilliant last year.

Rode my 125 Virago for the first time without my Lplates on since passing my test in November. Sadly/happily it was also the last time I'm ever going to ride it as it has now gone as part ex for a shiny new 535 Virago
It needs to be restricted and insured before I can actually have it but it's all paid for and in my name
Excited and and terrified at the same time
