I'll try this, just to see how to post pictures here.
Anglesey last weekend. Unklefukker = cbr400 with a 918 blade engine. Pretty rough but it started life as a charity ride bike. Two days on track, somewhat fettled and handy now.

Put the bike in the main car park today, if they moan about it then they can get to fuck. I’m much happier with it in the bay all to myself, less chance of some idiot getting too close.

The other bit was for the board, well it’s the board and members of staff but a few seem to have a problem with me parking there.

We have our own bit nearer the sheds but am I fuck getting the bike minging when it doesn’t have to.

On island of Pag in Croatia for a few days. Great roads and weather yet again.

(Can't link any photos as the seem to be saved as .heic files and not .jpg for some reason)

The bridge onto Pag from the mainland (screen shots work).

Also managed a foray into Bosnia by stepping over the concrete blocks at Zeljava airfield, 11 countries now entered.

Last week (Thursday) Essex up to East Yorkshire the twisty way via Ely, Boston and the Humber Bridge. Friday Beverley, Wetwang, Malton, Helmsley, Whitby, Scarborough. Couple of laps of Olivers Mount and a coffee then back to Beverley, Had five blokes come up to me and say " You don't see many of them around nowadays" Which was true for the first four blokes, but on the way over the Moors via Hutton le Hole there was a black and white Le Mans going in the opposite direction.
Saturday Back to Essex via Snake Pass and Matlock Bath
Sunday cleaning the bike, oil change and checking the points/timing, fitting new rear brake pads.

Dunseverick castle. Yes - it's a castle. Skub's last pic was of an unusually quiet Ballintoy Harbour. He must have been up early.

Couple of years ago we ended up going through and over a stream bed, with @Mr OCD on his almost new gsxr1000, then up a dirt lane nearly killing sheep, I was laughing so much I nearly crashed into a cow.
