That feeling of freedom only a good bike brings

[bikemad]

Been out & about past few days have to say it's a wonderful feeling after mothballing mine since October,today I washed,waxed the bodywork & oiled my chain before an evening ride 😎

It looks great,
I got mine back today from MOT station, they were freeing off rear caliper, guess what it was effin raining!!
all that good weather last weekend was real narked until I got on her and then....inside my helmet the sun came out 

Happy days again its gonna be a great biking spring and summer.

These days I only feel FULLY alive when I am out on a bike-you know the sort of day when everything flows & its just myself, the bike & the open road.
Its strange how by being fully involved in the experience can be a great stress reliever & puts all lifes little niggle & problems in perspective.

I have a two year old daughter, a wife with severe post-natal depression, a mother with crippling arthritis and a mother-in-law with dementia who all need a piece of my time/money/care which I work 45+ hours per week to pay for. I have two half-hour slots per day where I get to forget all the shit and concentrate on hitting the next bend. So yes, I sing and shout!
