From temperatures in the mid 20's a few weeks ago,to the cold weather were getting now

Was all ready to go a bike run , the plan was to get the ferry over to the Cowal Peninsula and explore some of the empty roads over there ,but i'm just waiting on confirmation from the lads ,i fear it might be cancelled

It's to brighten up later accordin to the various weather forecasts i looked at

It's ok here atm...

Saying that it'll prob piss it down 2moz as I'm due to go out on a ride with the Buell lads

Well ,one lads said he's not going ,and the other 3 of us have decided to go ,if it gets too bad we'll head for home ,...it's a bit blawy ootside, i might actually phone the ferry company to see if its still sailing ,as i know the Arran ferry was cancelled yesterday due to the weather.

Got to get ready..wooohooo

Its just started raining here, better weather coming sunday. Summer hasn't started yet!!!

Just spent a week in Cornwall with my son and daughter. Stayed at Fowey. Got a couple of beach days in, poured on Monday but was at the Eden Project so it didn't matter too much.

Chris, I envy you living down there - there seem to be some great roads down there and generally good surfaces too

You don't remember where they are anyway Pete you've been gone too long

Chris.

S** the forecast just get out there! If you do enough miles you should find dome sun. I did not regret my run out yesterday but with the road spray the Blade now looks 5 years old instead of 4 months. Oh well time to get the marigolds out

I didn't regret ours either ,one guy dropped out but the other three of us decided to go ,the thing is i was wrapped up well as it was quite cold before we left home ,but as soon as we stopped and the sun was out ,i was bloody roasting !

Had a great afternoon yesterday. Did a steady 150miles around the peaks with 17 from the Buell owners group. Was rather fun-even got a free lunch

Called in Matlock on the return-bloody heaving Managed to have a good look at a Desmosodici RR parked up outside a pub. Went and sat about 150 yards further up the road with a cuppa then noticed a crowd gathering-the guy who owned it was about to leave...the noise It sounded just like a GP bike. Amazing.

They sound and look pretty special, I have seen two now, one when me and Tim were out and about near Ilkley way and one in Lincoln at Italia Moto.
