That was the advanced group ride out, which was 'brisk' preceded and followed by 38km each way of banzai french backroads. ( I've got it on video, 17.22 mins journey time)
Some absolutely stunning roads there... you can just loose yourself for days in the Massif Centrale area. I could ride that area for ever and not get bored.

@Deadpool2 you should definitely get an XSR and maybe you'll be the first person to unravel one of the greatest mysteries of our time- WTF is that funny little box by the headstock....?

I can never get my head round the XSR's looks, but I love the naked MT range. That MT-10 is amazing. Buy one of those instead! YKIMS!

If you upset the gaffer, he can overrule me and rescind your tart number.

I thought it might be a little flip down mirror like you get on a visor in a car - so you can see to pluck the flies off your mascara :mrgreen:
