Went out to the garage earlier today to run the bikes up - feck! it was bloody freezing out there and was trying to rain.
My hands were blue after about 20 mins - even after warming them on the exhausts.

Was supposed to be going to my eldest daughters to sort her garden shrubs out for the Winter - Sod that for a lark!

Another really nice clear, crisp day, visibility around 40miles or so, but its freezing, and roads are gritted everywhere around here, so bike can stay in the garage

Halloween tonight, ive no notion of it, but neighbours were all good to our kids in past years, so i best go and get some sweets/nuts/apples etc

I even might pop up to Glasgow for a wee walk about the city centre

I went down to Ayr ,then went to the viewpoint up the carrick hills ,a pic of Arran (again),,...and that looks like the Mull of Kintyre running down behind it

Actually i was wishing i had took the bike, there were loads out

Mind you,there was coo shite everywhere up that wee minor road ,my bellypan would have been encrusted in it

Bloody cold up here and sh1t on roads, my overly cocky 16 year old son learnt a biking lesson today, thinking he was the dogs danglies he ripped up the road in front of his mates on his 50 and promptly slide off, right in front of Tesco's (next time ure round Daz slag him rotten)
No damage to either bike or dipstick son! he now wants a car!!!
