Popped up to Lanson bike night. 70 mile round trip with Steve and Martyn. About 30 bikes or so.

Congratulations @busabeast.

Out shopping on the Tidler. Got some L plates as Shadow is going back on the road . But apparently I have to take the dog shit top box off first

Me too, it's a pretty good picture IMHO. Could do with cropping but good image.

Sounds about right

That's very much what it's like living here. Beautiful but often overcrowded in the good weather. Sniffing and peeing is social media for dogs Luke is a cool looking Dude. Is he a Jack Russell Terrier?

I’m not

Just because, why wouldn’t you go out in this weather.

Out on the Tidler to run a few errands

Time to get your piccies up. The Poll will start on the 27th

Good idea.

Had a great weekend on the bikes. Bloody knackered today.

Well after a few weeks and several distractions, that I had to deal with, I got back up the shed to the Sprint today. I put it away in disgrace after having to cancel it's MoT as it blew a fork seal and cut out twice on the last run, only to restart once I switched the fuel tap to prime. Just to top it off I fitted a new rear brake switch that worked once only. Checked all the fuses and wiring so must have been the new switch I thought. I ordered a new fuel tap and two more brake switches, I already had fork seals and oil. Anyway out of sight and mind for a few weeks was enough for me to get over it, so went up the shed today to get on with it. I started it up and it fired right away which pleased me, battery was fine so no parasitic drain Checked the rear brake switch, the light worked perfectly so the fairies must have fixed that. I can't think why but it's fine now. I also switched the fuel tap to run and the bike died after a couple of minutes ticking over, switched to prime let the float bowls fill, started straight away, switched to reserve and it died after a few seconds so the fairies haven't fixed that. Hopefully got a clear day tomorrow to work on it and book the MoT for next week.

Out in the Tidler for a trip to the vets. Time for the Dear boys flea and worming meds

I have two singing gigs this weekend, Saturday night at Lanivet and Sunday afternoon at Lerryn. Be good to earn some money to pay off what we spent on our P A system. No time for much time on the bikes this week end.

Found this picture of what the Clay Country looked like back in the 1970's. The Sky Tip I have pictured with my bike is a remnant of this. I remember this landscape well when I was a kid.

Out on the the Tidler to get the dogs dinner.

Yeah I said as much to them, road sense is transferable from 2 wheels to 4. They are talking about moving out and growing up and all that stuff. I have told them that growing up is very expensive and to hang around here where the bills are paid. We shall see.

Just ridden How Highs Kawasaki death trap into St Austell for him. Took it to his dad’s so that he can sell it for him. I think Shadow has convinced him he wants to learn to drive and get a car. . I told him he could store it one of my sheds but he wants to sell it. I can see his point as he had hardly ridden it for weeks, I think his last off has blown his confidence. I told him there was no rush but you can’t put an old head on young shoulders. Only two bikers in the house now

Not so much really, Cornwall will be overrun with Holibobs, so everywhere will be packed and the roads congested. I'll wait for them all to go back before doing much out. I have fork seals to do on my Sprint but I can't see it happening so quiet time at home with the family for me. We will have a family meal on Sunday. which does not happen that much now the kids are adults. Might pop up to Dartmoor on Monday as the forecast is good, now you have planted the idea @Pedro.
