Is he reversing out of your way? Or is that your rear view camera?

To work this morning. Not gonna lie - it was cold, especially as I refuse to wear winter gear in late April. I'm only riding in as I received a car parking ban for late cancelling my car parking space - that's the price of freedom here. So if I want to go into the office for the next month, I will have to take my bike. I hope it warms up a little.

Check out the cheap pannier bags I bought to hide the ugly pannier rails - one of them fell onto the exhaust and practically disintegrated so down to one already which is secured with a cable tie.

I went over this bridge. I've been meaning to go over it for quite some time. The road up to it was actually pretty good.

If its a decent size pillion seat, you'll get a decent size tail bag strapped to it. 👍

Not a great picture, I have adapted my SW Motech panniers and I have a 20L Kreiga tail pack on there with my rucksack slung on top and helmet in the way. If I ever needed more (for maybe camping) I have a 40L Lomo dry bag which would replace the tail pack. I think once you get that far, you can just keep adding if you have the right straps and bungies :lol:

I'm sat here looking at heavy rain,likely for the next week at least,so those pics didn't make me jealous at all.

Nope,not even slightly. :(

We were really lucky with the weather, far better than I was expecting 24 to 30 degrees, rained 10 mins into final session on day 1, slightly damp track for first 2 sessions of day 2, then blue skies and beautiful weather. Took wets but never came out of their bag.
Went out on push bike the day after we got back and froze my twat off.
