This summer since the middle of June has been one of the worst I remember, I've done about 50 miles since then.

Today's ride was berserk in comparison. Just 2 of us so went exploring and found some new bits.
Then headed UP to cool down in the clouds
Best ride for ages. This GasGas just gets better :)

Can see the path we took, above the handlebars.

Tbf... reckon that would be great fun, maybe you need to get 1 or 2 more bike's and get a little business going. 🙂👍

I think I may as well get rid of all of mine, I've not ridden any of them for a couple of months due to being stupidly busy and the shit weather.

Been properly wank hasn't it :angry-cussingblack: It's why I'm taking a day off tomorrow for a ride, most weekends I'm busy with the kids or it's been pissing it down. Mainly the latter :angry-cussingblack: :angry-cussingblack: :angry-cussingblack: :angry-cussingblack: :angry-cussingblack:

Vulcanet wipes,but I'm never out in the shitty weather,they wouldn't do if the bike needed anything more than getting rid of flies or dust.

I am glad some of you like it, I hated the POS.

Super Meteor by name, below average slug by nature. It had one clever licence-saving feature, it will only just achieve an indicated 73 after a long and protracted run up. Other than that it is dire.
