Was falling asleep on the M1 Steve, so I went as far as Daventry and back by A361 again. Took it fairly easy on the twisty bits, concentration woke me up nicely, it's also a much more direct route than other options.
Poor Triumph design - fancy putting a glasses holder inside the fairing like that! :lol

Take a peek outside your window - is that bloody Volvo there? :eek

Home ok Andy?

Yes, when you're tired it's a difficult choice I suppose between the monotony of a motorway or the more demanding A roads, glad that you made it back safely though Wink

I'll be on to the designers at Triumph tomorrow, need holder for glasses in a more convenient place where -
A - I can see them without my glasses on
B - I don't have to be double jointed to retrieve them
C - They won't melt whilst I'm retrieving them

I'll be having Volvo related nightmares later I reckon :lol

I Live near Newcastle upon Tyne and my recreational rides either go in the Whitby direction, lake district or Scotland. All A and B roads.
Usually about 150 to 200 miles.

However today I went to the Falkirk Wheel 345 miles round trip, my longest day. [Image: jyvyruze.jpg]
