Being really cheery, hitting the posts would probably ruin your day
Even bland can be a type of character 
Re: When/Where/Pics was the last time you rode your bike ?
Another early starter here today.
Took a trip down the Fosse Way to Kemble Airfield (that was closed to the public today).
The main reason was to put some miles into the springs of me new rear shocks.
Lovely heading there, but the return through the Cotswolds things were starting to get busy, I was happy to be home by 10:30 after a 130m round trip.
Had to get the ubiquitous ‘Bike in the Countryside’ photos.

A marvel of architectural design.

And the bloke that built it actually WAS an architect. It looks better now it's painted white, but it's still weird, especially in such a stunning location. Did you try any puddings, btw?

It's hot as hell's kitchen now. It's the shade for me today.I'm glad I got up and out before 7am.
I had one of those 'everything's all right with the world' runs. A battery charger.

One of my favourite ever places to walk, Dunseverick. Just stunning, even on a crap day.
I've racked up more miles this week, a solid 100 yesterday. I found my favourite road so far, a joining road from Snake Pass to Midhopestones, Mortimer Road. Open and fast, and then tight and twisty. Didn't stop to take any photos

The “Sarf Dahns” today for a quick fly deposition trip on the newly waxed paintwork.

Took a bunch out today. Oxted - Tenderden - Romney marshes - Dungeness - Brightling - Ashdown Forest, dumped them on the A22, Blindley Heath. Great weather and good company, picture at Tenderden. New tyres on Thursday and then I guess I'm ready for a track day
