Today a visit to Loch Tay......if coronavirus has some silver lining there were no motorhomes, no caravans, no coaches - just open roads! cheers

I've just ridden my Guzzi home from work in a proper monsoon. judging by the condition it was in when I bought it, I suspect this is the first time it's ever seen rain.

Re: When/Where/Pics was the last time you rode your bike ?
I've just got in from the garage. It's not spotless, but it'll do. I joke about Italian build quality, but I don't think I've ever owned a bike that feels as premium in it's fit and finish as thing.Skub wrote: Fri Jul 10, 2020 7:15 pmIn the morning there'll be nothing left but the seat.KungFooBob wrote: Fri Jul 10, 2020 6:00 pm I've just ridden my Guzzi home from work in a proper monsoon. judging by the condition it was in when I bought it, I suspect this is the first time it's ever seen rain.![]()

Rode the twisties down to Cochem yesterday. A day of play ahead in and around the Eiffel Mountains, Moselle valley and probably pop in to see what's happening at the Nurburgring.
I love waking up and seeing this view from the hotel especially when the roads are dry and the sun is shining

My 6ft+ 'John Cleese lookalike' mate had a ride on my V50. Came back, said how he liked it. We then told him that he was actually sat on the pillion part of the seatKungFooBob wrote: Sun Jul 05, 2020 10:01 pm Jeez, I didn't realise I looked like some kind of giant riding a monkey bike!

I had a little run around the North Yorks moors including the "Yorkshire TT", once in each direction.

This is between Fylingdales and Whitby

Best bit and with only 50ho it was the only chance to wheelspin. Tbh such a nice power delivery it would be great in a scrambler for some gravel roads
