There's not to wave at on the road up to the Dyke. I live just south of the Dyke roundabout. I'll wave next time.Mr Moofo wrote: ↑Thu Sep 14, 2023 8:01 pmShould have given me a wave !Trinity765 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 14, 2023 7:44 pm Raced up to Devils Dyke on my way home to get a pic of the sun setting and just missed it.

Lovely run into work this morning with the mist settling just around the level of the tree line around the fields

Re: When/Where/Pics was the last time you rode your bike ?
Did my last Tuesday evening bike club run of the year I think.
The low sun at the start is such you can’t see a damn thing and it’s getting dark by half seven so it’s just not worth it anymore.
Which is a shame as they are fun.

Re: When/Where/Pics was the last time you rode your bike ?
Saturday afternoon bimble with 2 pubs. 
Really enjoying the RE. B road bimbling at it's best.
50/60 ish , taking the corners as quick as the straights, that's where the fun is.
Out to Ellesmere by the lake, Cross foxes at Overton by the river and my favourite, the Shroppie fly at Audlem by the canal.
On way home doing 60, thought I'd give it full twist lots more there, I reckon it's good for 80, I do worry about explosions though.

A couple of hours out with the old classic boyos. Brill weather for October.

Re: When/Where/Pics was the last time you rode your bike ?
That blue '75 Z1-B is my favorite Kaw paint scheme for a 4 banger, ditto the purple '75 H2-C... The '99 ZRX11 isn't too shabby either... I notice he turned the rear plate bracket the right way up. The amount of us who striped/polished the edges of the wheels makes me wonder why the hell Kawasaki didn't do that in the first place. They sure as hell did it on a lot of other models for decades (started with the '76 KZ000 LTD iirc).

It might have been brill weather where you are but it pissed down for most of the day again around here,new month same forecast.
I don't mind a bit of rain but it's hardly stopped since mid June...

'Tis ten times cleaner than mine in 1980. It happens all the classics,they become polished jewels,which not many of them were in their heyday. I don't recall any glittering Kawa triples back then,they were just oily stinkwheels.
