Xmas bimble

Mild temperatures, bright sun, dry roads with no cack on them - I've
just been out on the XS650, delivering presents to brethren and sisteren
and collecting same.

Rumbling through SW London on a nice big vertical twin, snapping the
throttle open hard down the A3 past Roehampton... If I don't ride a bike
again this year, that was as good a way to end 2005 as any.

 

I did similar yesterday, fair blew away the cobwebs too, apart from a people
carrier laden with twats flicking dog ends at me on the B4011.

Have a good one, I are mostly heading north tonite.

I did my bimble yesterday, dry roads as well, which is the first time in
weeks. Merry fun.

It's a far better than that shopping lark.

 

Where in Sarf Lundun and how long for?
I foresee a pub meet somewhere..........

I went a run today too. From Dundee to Fort William by Glen Coe and
back by Dalwhinnie and the A9. First time on the CBR since I got the
GS in october. It felt like riding a minimoto.

tomorrow, forecast looks good.

Hmm.. Yesterday, I nearly hit some old bloke who walked out in the road,
locked up the front, got it back again, got shouty at him then went onto
cause a huge great big cloud of smoke on the A27 coz the exhaust I
bought was full on oil.

Lovely.

 

Ukrm Christmas Run?

: I make that around 300 miles?

Nearer 260 I think.

: In this weather?

It was quite 'refreshing'.

: Quite a bimble!

Well if I'm going to put all the gear on I might as make it worth while.
