  2. What’s a causine? And do you mean Guilhermo?
  3. He's Gyermo's causine...lol.
  4. An inland sea inside an island inside a sea?
  5. I do appreciate a nice Triple Black, they look great when all nice and shiny! That was quite a day ride, starting it after a night shift is hard, when do you sleep?
  6. Mossies are pretty much a west coast thing, very few in the middle of the country, Loch Ness is huge, it’s like an inland sea.
  7. 25°, that’s quite something! What are the mosquitoes like with heat like that? The scenery is just great, even with Nessie not making an appearance.

    Grand Day Out West

    Part two We left Penberth Cove with the WI Fete still in full swing. We talked about going to Porthcurno beach to see the cables but the Minack Theatre cafe had a stronger draw. Problem was it was closed to the public unless you had booked ahead. So we followed the coast road around past Porthcapel, Porthgwarra, Nanjizal Bay, Lands End, First and Last House and finally onto stop at Sennen Cove. Gwynver beach in the background. Apparently we can’t park there So we went to for some much needed refreshments Saw this Tripple Black and I thought of @Pedro Sounded great with a full Akrapovic system. Owner was a Sennen local riding around in flip flops. Sennen Beach Lifeboat house and slipway We headed off again withe the old nail riders wanting to stick to the slower B roads for the scenery, apparently. Wasn’t bad at all to be fair. Headed past Land’s End Airport, St Just, Botallack, Pendeen, Zennor all across Tencrom to St Ives. Decided then to head back to Hayle and ultimately back to Hell’s Mouth again for Coffee. While I was getting the drinks some of the lads helped some guy bump start his 1250 Bandit with flat battery. Wish I had some photos of some very comedic antics. How none of the lads had a heart event I will never know. Silly old feckers. Matey who owned the Bandit was just as bad he must have been 70. They got him going and had to have a few quiet minutes drinking their coffee to recover. Now all flagging and miles from home they finally agreed to take the A30 home. I lead them onto Portreath, Redruth and Scorrier before rejoining the A30. Had to keep the pace down to 60/70 so the British Nails didn’t destroy themselves or blind their riders with vibes. Despite that we made it home to Fowey by around 18:00 in time for cocoa and a nap. Twas a bloody good day. We are going up to Dartmoor next time be cooler up there My day stats from leaving work in the morning. The lads did about 145 of those miles. Really enjoyed riding the CBF again after its repairs. Great, capable comfy old bike. And it’s got to be said in good company.

  20. So Sunday afternoon I decided to ride north, I had a notion of possibly getting to Loch Ness although it wasn't definite. I headed up to Perth and rode the A9 up into the Cairngorms and the start of the highlands via Pitlochry. I hit the twisties on the A889 from Dalwhinnie where I enjoyed my improved handling, didn't see any Indians but if I had then I would have easily passed the aluminium framed pieces of crap. I then joined the A86. There are all sorts of little houses of different shapes and sizes tucked away up here. I made my way all the way to Fort Augustus and the start of Loch Ness, the roads are in a lot better condition than I was expecting, they are clearly maintaining them for the tourist traffic, quite a lot of bikes out and the temperature was running at about 25c. I decided to go to Castle Urquhart as I had never been there before, the entry fee was £17 but I am a Historic Scotland member so I got in free. I was able to have a walk through the ruined castle grounds and down to the shore of Loch Ness, no sign of Nessie unfortunately (or was there?). After this I headed up to Inverness but it was getting late so I jumped back onto the A9 to head back home, I had already done more than 200 miles at this point, I called into Aviemore to get fuel on the way back. Bizarrely after the high heat in the Highlands the weather started to cool as I headed back south and the Queensferry bridge was completely hidden in fog when I crossed it before heading home where the sun was shining again. In the end I did 380 miles, it was a good day out, getting home just before 9pm. There are definitely some roads up there that I need to explore sometime but I will need to stay up there for a few days.
  21. for sure.... @Marcel knew it as well , he would of never made that challenge if @busabeast was local to him
  22. yes that's the only drawback
  23. Why ? did the loch ness monster have his way with @Buckster ............
  24. That looks like a pretty fine way to spend your morning , better than lying in bed fiddling with your man parts while trying to sleep ...........
