Re: When/Where/Pics was the last time you rode your bike ?
I was doing some training today but when i rolled the Fazer out of the garage it had a front tyre that was flat as a pancake so the Multi got used instead ..... Even with all the power settings turned down to minimum its a pain in the arse to ride that slowly behind students

Still plodding away in November. If we could lose the wet part in climate change,I'd be a fan.

Re: When/Where/Pics was the last time you rode your bike ?
I was out on the 650X today,glad I was wearing my Winter gloves.
I went for an explore across the moss,this roads been closed for a couple of months where a bridge goes over the old dissused railway line,they've put big concrete blocks across the road but there's enough of a gap to get through on 2 wheels
The temps have dropped but no sign of the gritters just yet & it seems like a few weeks since we last saw the sun.I think it's time to put the Summer gloves away now..

Just outside Glenarm on the Antrim coast road.

Sun should have reappeared yesterday evening in the NW and should be reasonably bright for the next few days. Staying fairly mild.Bustaspoke wrote: ↑Sat Nov 09, 2024 4:34 pm

Would you be kind enough to let me pinch that second photo?
Would be perfect for my Science Of Being Seen presentations to show that lights are useful on dull grey days!

Another reasonable day. It's quite cool,so the chainsaw loves that old dense air.

Re: When/Where/Pics was the last time you rode your bike ?
Yes feel welcome to use it,although of my 3 bikes currently on the road I think the 650X has the poorest light to be seen with,the 650S & Street Triple are both twin headlight & I think it gives them more 'presence' with regard to being seen by other road users.The Spin Doctor wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2024 9:58 am [

Took Thunderbird 4 out of TB2 and rode her up the lane.
