just dropped my tent off at kevs & seeing as it's only a 1 skinner i chucked in a car cover as well so i can put another layer over it and cover my bike too if it looks like rain!
tent is a bit smelly and muddy as ive not used it since last year...

been cracking weather today & should be same tomorrow, so looking forward to a good ride down at least.
might have to rename this to Rain doh :roll:

on the way back from kev's i caught the reflection of my bike in a kebab shop window as i turned right, and noticed no headlight :confused
pulled over to check & sure enough low beam had popped.
hardly surprising really as i never turn it off.
look!!! 8O

fortunately i got a pair of them so got a spare - these are 130/90 rally bulbs and not sure if you can get them off the shelf.
thought it might be an idea to keep one under the seat just in case :thumbup:

Possible revised route as apparently the previous had a lot of dual carriage ways and straight A roads :whatever

Mr Jones, what do you reckon? Does it include that corner? :biggrin
