Had the Ducati out for a spin today as it was booked in for its delayed MOT as the dates were extended due to lockdown.... ironic that i can now take it in lockdown lite. Very enjoyable and got to MOT station just before sundown

Ah, that's brought back memories - here's a pic taken by 11-year-old me of the worst side of the then family transport ( a Vincent Rapide with a 4 seater sidecar) in the carpark on one of the annual holidays over to my Grandparents

Went to box hill and then Ouse valley Viaduct to meet a mate who’s just got a new 765r street triple. Chilly, did’t layer enough. Nice to be out though

Stole another hour today.
It would be nice to find any dry roads with no muddy rivers running across!
It'll take more than an hour's cleaning.

Took a short ride today to the site of one of Franco's concentration camps in San Isidro, just outside Albatera. It is thought that 25,000 prisoners died in this camp. This is the memorial at the site, which is right at the end of the train station.
It seems few Spaniards want to talk about Franco, and fewer still the Spanish Civil War. Old wounds run deep.

No picture, but I was in Bexleyheath on the K today. Then out and about to enjoy what was a bright clear day. Still need to give the bike a wipe down though. And fitted a K&N Airfilter last night, sounds very nice with more induction noise!

Technically not the last time I rode it, but it wasn’t that long ago.
