When/Where/Pics was the last time you rode your bike ?

[Skub]

No pics,but I managed a 3 hour ride today. Drying and damp roads,but I had to get out,it's been a week since the last run. June has been crap weather so far,it's not even that warm early morning,I still have the thermal lining in my jacket ffs.

It's probably because I use the bike early in the day,but I forget what it's like to be too warm!

[Taipan]

We need pics. And Supermoto!

I'll have to edit my photos, as too large to put up. There will be a few!

imgbb.com will do all that for you and give you the tagged bb code to drop straight into the forum.

Car Where's the fun in that.

Visiting parents mate, dad cant drive anymore so i need transport to get them around. Trust me i would rather be on the bike but that would be a tad selfish and taking the car allows them to get about a bit to places that are normally 3 different buses etc

So on the subject of the thread .....here is when i last rode the bike this afternoon with todays 2 students. Both never ridden bikes before and both actually in the category of "took to it like a duck to water" which doesnt happen very often

I worry about the future of biking so great to see people learning

I worry less when I see Yin's Fraser with no top-barnacle-box.

Midweek day off & I took the SV650 for it's MOT,happy to say the bike passed
Whilst the paperwork was getting printed I had a close look at the two WW II bikes on the ramps.Check out the evolution from these to whatever your riding now



That's a sidevalve BSA,note the blackout headlight,surprised the Hipster crowd haven't come up with a modern version of the headlight.

Local bike night tonight & the sun's shining,lets see what turns up there

[Bustaspoke]

Last night I rode my Street Triple to the local bike night,the sun was shining & it was a good turn out.
Here's a few of the old bikes that are not so common these days

Schwantz rep RGV 250


Another 'GP replica, Rothmans NSR400, I can't remember when I last saw one of these


GSXR750


And something I don't think I've seen this century.Turns out the owner has two of them plus another 'donor bike',he reckons he can get a lot of spares from the States as Bridgestone sold a lot of them over there,also Suzuki GP100 conrods fit when you take 2mm of the crank webs.


This is just a very small selection of the bikes that turn up at the bike meet,it'll be mid July before I can get to the next one,hopefully the weather will be just as glorious

[weeksy]

Just now to the Supermarket to get some CV19 tests as the boy is a bit poorly.

[tricol]

Hope he is okay.

I'm hoping to get out tonight. Weather looks good for a change!

Your lad is young and fit,he'll be fine in no time.

The photographer needs to be careful of that sloping horizon. Perhaps that's what made the bike fall over?

[Skub]

I've been out on the bike three days in a row,must be a total of nine or ten hours riding. Rain coming in,so that's it for a while. Must be around 80 quid in fuel,for the pleasure.

I don't normally stop where there's a gathering of bikes,but I spotted this old girl and had a chat with the owner. It was first registered in 1955,so the same age as me.

Looks a lot better than I do too.
