Glad I got out for a short ride yesterday

Looking at the weather from now it looks like that could be it for a while. Big storms forecast for tomorrow. At least I have the last MotoGP to watch this weekend. Then it's all down to a long winter slog before it all starts again. I start next year at Mallory in March, can't wait even though it was the circuit that I had my big crash on this year.

I rode yesterday too. Only rain-free day this week. Had a good long ride to & fro across the Brecon Beacons firing ranges. Only drawback is its now a never ending cycle = ride bike, wash bike, ride bike, wash bike etc etc. Only foreseeable relief from this routine will be spraying bike with ACF 50 ready for the salting season.

I also made the most of a ride out yesterday, wearing the wrong glasses. That was interesting.

I only managed 40 miles to a meeting and back, but did do part of the way out with a couple of Bizzies on Bikes, wonderful how the 3 of us swooped around a series of roundabouts with nobody getting in the way.

I'm running out of things to fettle. Even my race bikes are ready for next year and road bikes also done for 2026.

I'm sensing a rocker who needs a project ...!

Do you remember, before the Internet, when people thought the cause of stupidity was lack of access to information?

Yeah, it wasn't that.

How about building one these for the old Mod Jerry. would keep you occupied for a few hours, and I'm sure she would love it.
