I wonder what time this bloody place opens? I'm running on fumes and I've been waiting for ages for some 4 star.

I'm sure you're old enough to remember when they had the 2t oil can next to the pumps for the premix boys.

That place would make a great back yard shed (after refurbishment)

Re: When/Where/Pics was the last time you rode your bike ?
Lovely run out this morning, adjusted and lubed the chain last night and the gear change was absolute butter. Felt nice and relaxed and the ride just flowed. Was going to head to Krazy Horse but the forecast said rain that way and as I headed east to Castle Hedingham the temp dropped a fair bit and there was lots of cloud. Didn't look like rain but was distinctly chilly. So, I headed back west to the sun

Today I are mostly patrolling the B roads. When I turn off the bike and sit for a minute,there's only the sound of the birds and the sheep.

Good choice …… the usually sunny East was wetter than an otters pocket all day. No pics as my phone was tucked away in an inside pocket for safety and my gear won’t be dry until tomorrow

Not the best photo. But, loaner CBF and the mountains behind it to the left, Les Arcs and to the right, La Plagne
It was sunny when I set out! I overslept and missed the sunny part of the day but it was definitely brighter than that photo looks!!
