To be 16 through the night here apparently, that’s a pain in the arse for us at work. Seen two bikers on the way home from work today, roads are shit, not sure what enjoyment can be had from that.

Saturday or Sunday is looking more positive for a short ride,I'll get a coffee shop shot if it is.

Wife said 'It's a bit parky' to someone recently and he said 'What's that mean'. I thought it must be that he's a southern softie but wife (who is, but I thought she picked it up from me) said it's a southern term too. News to me.

If the current challenge was "your bike under a blanket in the garage" we'd have loads of entries. I'd have two of them :)

Has there been a "your bike with someone famous" challenge yet?

I'd say that challenge would sit for a day or two. :lol:

I want little in life, but I have to admit my own theme tune (leitmotif if you're being fancy) wouldn't be terrible.

That's me out! It's due to snow tonight down here (and definitely up at home!!) so no chance of me taking the bike out to the nearest memorial till next year!!
