Re: A ride out today with no rain...what a lovely surprise

Nice and dry here yesterday, but I'm pleased to report normal service has been resumed as of this morning.
Just managed to get into work before the roads got wet.

Same here Deano

Mr H reckons yesterday was the last day I had chance to clock up some miles but I put my neck out at the weekend so couldn't manage it, away this weekend and back to work so looks like it's gonna get cleaned and greased and put to bed for the winter

I think this winter may be the first time in ages I won't have a bike on the road, unless I get some funds rolling in. It'll come out if we get sunny dry days, but I ain't risking dropping this one.

That's the spirit, glad to hear it. However, I know what these men are like bless 'em. Best just to go along with it and take care in the spring.
