I donned my new found bad boy persona and spent a long time riding my machine whilst sticking it to the man :-) Rediscovered some excellent roads in south Oxon / Berkshire border, utterly glorious with little in the way of cars or other bikes to hassle me, much like the Thame to Bicester B4011, but longer and better. Treated the bike to a spangly new clock too, so all is well in the world,; a pleasant afternoon was had fabricating a suitable bracket for it in the shed. Met a chap in M&P who is doing Silverstone on Monday, warned him to watch out for a norvern monkey on a ZX12R. Might wash the bike tomorrow if it's sunny :-)
