Got the Rockster back on the road at last, so stopped off by the beach to take in the setting sun and the sea.

What's the attachment on the top box??

Piss bottle to ensure the smell never leaves.

Nice 300 mile round trip on Monday with some mates to Dartmooor, then Slapton Sands, Dartmouth for lunch & back home to Wiltshire for birthday

Most acceptable.

A little place called La Roche just below where I live - 6kms by road apparently!

Hell yes!! Sadly I crashed in the Shoei with the corset detail Can't seem to find that lid again So, sticking with the cool kids Kawasaki one for now

I left early this morning about 8am and enjoyed the quiet roads for 160 odd miles. Sort of the first proper few hours out this year. Very pleasant.

Its raining here. Which would really piss me off if I had insurance on the bike!! LOL

I took the SV650 out for a spin earlier,fitted a new fork oil seal yesterday afternoon.It's forecast rain all tomorrow so I made the most of the sunshine



Nice weather for a test run

Finally a chance to get a good few miles in yesterday.
The roads were a bit damp in places early on, but the skies were blue (in places) and my time free so off I went.

So a few hours of two wheeled, blue sky therapy left me feeling great.

Got a few shots when out, including this one of Broadway Tower for the challenge thread (too late again).

We had a ride over to Devil's Bridge earlier.
I spotted this Vincent HRD at Dunsop Bridge,can't remember the last time I saw one on the road.



On the way back we stopped at the Jubilee Tower,taking the views over Morecambe bay.There was no point stopping on the way to Devils Bridge as at this point it was covered in hill fog



By pure chance we bumped into one of my old workmates at Devils Bridge,he's 76 & was out on his sons 600 Fazer
Here's hoping I can still enjoy riding bikes aged 76!

They are a rare thing on the road. I saw this one last year in Ballycastle and had a yarn with the owner. He said he uses it fairly regularly on good days. Even to folk like me who have no connection to British iron,they are lovely bikes.

The FV605 from La Pared to Pakara was awesome as usual. Naff all traffic.
Then the road from Pajara to Betancuria and beyond is just insane.

Took some pics from here. Risco.

Then got lost while having fun. But still made the ferry

For a second there, I thought, that pannier is low and then realised its your end can!
