That's even more strange as that bit has new (official highway) signs warning you to slow down because of the traffic coming out of Upper Fosse Farm

It's an old map to be fair Fred it's an old map. You need to come over some time, we could do the Fosse, Macmillian Way and some other lanes to make a day of it.

I'm not a huge Madonna fan but I do have this album, William Orbit is a shit hot producer

In Gloucestershire it's all byway Fred so all legal. There are some parts in Somerset that are no go nowadays. You're not thinking of the Ridgeway are you ?

Nice one Bob, such a cool looking bike . I had one about 2006, I only sold it as I would have ended up taking it trail riding and it was much too smart for that.

Btw @XTreme , that ford is the one where you superimposed my leg in it about 17 years ago

No problem Mate, Fred is not here to comment but his wife would knock that old trout in the video into a cocked hat

She asked if I would send her the photos, I have been in correspondence with her this evening, what a lovely lady .............. www.learntocarriagedrive.co.uk

Do you mean my quote Pedro ?

Having seen Fred's wife I think he'd probably pass on that.....................

Today we were due a break between the howling winds that Tym kindly sent over from his flag island so it was a good chance to go for a trail ride. Only one destination in mind and that was the Fosseway, nice and steady and a good way to worm my way back in as my last trail ride was June 2021 . I met Tony at Castle Combe and we set off for Summer Lane but that was blocked by a fallen tree, so backtrack and straight onto the Fosseway at Fossegate. Lots of puddles and fallen branches to avoid but apart from that no dramas until we stopped at the ford, no fording today so we took the bridge instead............. There was some evidence on an unsucessful previous attempt by someone else............ We carried on another couple of miles until coming across this coming towards us. I asked the driver if it was ok to take some photos as I had never seen a carriage on a byway before........... At the junction with the Kemble road we took the UCR around the airfield. Stopped here to open a gate, you can see planes in the background................. We wern't sure if the AV8 cafe was open or not as it had been closed for a couple of months. When we got there we found out why, it probably takes a fair while to manouvere a jumbo jet into a position where it can greet you as park in the cafe car park After a nice cup of coffee and watching several light aircraft taking off in fairly gusty winds we made oue way over to some lanes south of Cirencester.............. and then found a handy bench to sit on and eat our sandwiches on a farm track south of Malmesbury From there we rode a couple more lanes before parting on the A420. I rode down to a local garage with a jet wash to get rid of the mud and than made my way back home. It was great to ride a bike on loose surfaces again and feel it moving about beneath me and the bonus was not a single badger

I'll give it a miss , thanks.

You made the right decision. it all smacks me as a bit desperate to be honest

Yeah, I can clearly see how she's promoting how an intelligent woman can fix a bike.............. or, how some old girls just love to wave their tits about to anyone and everyone .........................

I'm thinking to myself.............. @Six30 why the feck did you start a thread like this ? It's only heading one way and you ain't going to be the winner

Fuckmine, you don't half like some shite

What I’m to say is it should have been a 800/900 then it would have had the power to go with the other upgrades -

Yebbut, your bike probably has more power and a fair bit more torque ?
