Sums up why I ride very well, especially when he goes on about the dangers and he still chooses to ride.

BINGO!!!  t minus 16 minutes until I ride home from work in the sun....think I will enjoy it a little more today!  :)

That kinda sums up the Scottish summers the last few yrs, a nice day here and there followed by wind and rain with the odd snow shower thrown in!

Haha, we've had quite a few nice weeks this year, just hoping when I get my bike on the road it's still nice! Simmer Dim Rally next month so will definately be back on the road for that!

Where abouts are you?
 
TT would be amazing, maybe I'll go sometime. The Simmer Dim is a great rally if you've never been up for it. Always reminds me why I ride a bike, it's a great few days, messing about with friends, listening to good music, playing stupid games and riding bikes  8)

I will get up for the simmer dim at some point, there's a few of us from Newcastle fancy it (and a couple that have been a few times too). Maybe next year :))

The Simmer Dim is a great rally. A lot of people come up for it every year but There are limited spaces so you've got to get your ticket application back fast or it sells out in about two weeks.

Good video.  Touring by bike is one of best ways of seeing a country. I feel sorry for all those whose holidays are mainly all inclusive beach resorts. Each to their own I suppose.
