Saul Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Just went out for a bimble to Saltash to get some shots for bike of the month. Lovely sunny weather but fecking windy. While the Hornet is lovely and flickable in terms of handling I have discovered it is prone to being blown around just as easily. Not the end of the world but a feature of the bike just the same. Cracked my first 1000 miles on the bike so now is should be well run in. I love the way it delivers its power it’s just a joy and I would argue one of the best bikes I have owned for grin factor. The man himself Bit of a short arse even with the silly hat. The definition of a fucking rough pub. I have been there a couple times and can confirm it’s evil in there most nights.

Pedro Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 One cool looking bridge! It's a shame that when people build a newer bridge next to the old one to accommodate for bigger trains or whatever, the new one never matches the old in company and spoils the view with ugly modernity. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That newer bridge was built in 1961 for cars. Its is butt ugly though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't go in yesterday, but the last time I went in their on the way home from Rugby it was sticky carpet and broken chairs type of place. Has had a reputation for being rough for years, used to be a good place for music backalong, wouldn't have a clue now.
