The cake was already eaten before they had the chance to bring the coffee over Andy..........oops (^) Lovely Bakewell slice, the famous local produce of the the area :P

The cyclists in the back of the shot were asking me about my bike and couldn't believe it was 12 years old (lol) they genuinely thought it was brand new (y)

Cheers Rocket (y)

Riding back to back with a modern 1000cc sportsbike the old girl lacks some grunt. Not surprising giving away 60 bhp, as the modern litre sportsbikes have 50% more power than the 12 year old weapons but boy is that chassis still sweet.

You have to ride it smooth and flowing but she can carry some corner speed for a lardy old lump :P

Tried out the Axo gloves. Loads of protection, very well built but a little stiff. I've got some leather treatment. They should soften with that and use.
