The weather people forecast a rare sunny day today so I took the Street Triple for it's MOT.
You'd have thought that after the rainfall wev'e had in the last 14 months that the weather people would be good at forecasting yet more rain...
The bike's covered in muck again but at least it passed the MOT
I used the day as a waterproofing test for my bike gear,time for some reproofing

Had a nice bit of GT time today, just over 100 miles. Egg n bacon bap at Bala then the hilly road to Lake Vyrnwy for photos, then home for a bbq. Still enjoying the mighty Enfield.

The purple one looks to be a later year than yours?
Still prefer the orange.

Fair point...I'm rubbish with 70s road bikes. The orange one's still best, though.

Yeah a 75 H2C. That was the last of the 750 triples.

Re: When/Where/Pics was the last time you rode your bike ?
Not being able to get out during the Bank Holiday weekend, today I needed a trip out.
Set out early and headed north to avoid the impending thunderstorms that were threatened around midday and found myself at a little tea shop in Measham, Pot Kiln farm.
On the way there I passed this old barn I had seen a couple of years ago and wanted to try to get a photo of the bike with it as the backdrop.
I did manage to refind it on the return for these shots.
Using the Beeline to navigate and record my rides I was keen on trying out an app called Relive. This allows you to use exported GPX files of your rides runs etc to be used to generate a 3D animation like the one below from my ride this morning.

Do you start recording when away from home, if it's a public video?
Even bland can be a type of character

That aspect did concern me initially, but the resolution is too low to be accurate.
I think if I was posting these up regularly, and they always started at the same place, it has the potential to assist the determined thief locate you, so I would need to think about that.

I was out on mine today. I went to Crawley - hence no photos!
