Lovely day here so I went out … the pub .. if you know you know .

Out with the Fowey grey gang today. Combined age 240+ years. Truro, Blackwater, Helston, Porthleven and finally Restronguet Creak to do a Freddie Dobbs. Well not really just for a pot of tea

This year's RiverFest didn't disappoint.... plenty of cool 4-wheel entry's. Most of the bikes were of the HD variety (nothin' new)....& a handful of tractors. A REAL van.... & my 2 favorites from today's show.... Love this '46 Chev w/ a blown small-block.... BadAss truck!

He wouldn't know, his lot were neutral.

No mate she is a biker. She was tracking the new front brake lever that was being delivered today, by the time the delivery driver was three stops away she had her full bike gear on waiting. As soon as I fitted the lever she was gone out after 8 days off the road. 108 miles later she was home knackered because she has work tomorrow. Me and the Mrs are referring to her as Shevel Knievel now. She has had the lecture several times and knows another claim means she will be off the rood as she will never get insurance again for several years. I hope for her sake it sinks in. Oh and I don't have a problem riding my bikes to where I want to go, don't need a van.

I needed to head back home now so I started to make my way back , on the route I took I passed Gt. Coxley tithe barn ........... and then stopped for a quick break by my favourite lake near Malmesbury .......

Very sad mate, my thoughts are with you.

thats so sad... condolences to you both

Made me think of Shadow.

I meant it as a joke, but not directed at you or your daughter!

perfect day out.

Have you ever thought about buying your daughter a Transit, @Saul? She could drive the CBF to places. Take a page from Six’s book.

probably ... the amount of times its slid down the road lately

Gotta admit at a combined weight of over 300kg I was a tad apprehensive but I'm a tad nuts so went in full guns and the great white lump just gobbled up mud , rocks , logs , massive ruts and long gravel climbs. Before this little bimble I was seriously thinking of chopping it in for a CF450MT, but not now , just need to fettle a few thing like the suspension and the gear shifter, needs a flexible tip. Before and after

Bikes bloody clean Bob, you got that van out of shot?

So on Sunday afternoon I decided to take a run out as the temperature was up to a near Caribbean level of 12c. I headed south into the Scottish Borders to the popular spot of Moffat but other than a sprinkling of power rangers and a few born agains it was quiet. My new exhausts were attracting a lot of admiring looks from the ladies. From there I headed to St Mary's Loch for a bit of cottaging. I was alone in the toilets though so I just took a piss instead. Again there weren't a lot of bikes, I did speak to a Polish couple who were on a Harley Electra Glide and I had a cigar break. Then I headed back using a single track road I wanted to explore. This took me past Megget Reservoir.

I saw a few of Fred's girlfriends, it is lambing season to if Fred had been here he would have gone full nonce. I then headed to Talla Reservoir, as usual the scenery was okay. Going off the side of the road would give you a bad day here. I eventually rejoined the main road and headed back to Edinburgh.

Terribly sad today, Sofia’s puppy, Lea, passed away yesterday night. I knew her for 9 years now, and we were very dear to each other. It was a rough night and we now have a dog that doesn’t understand why the favourite thingin his world is not around, it’s heartbreaking.
