Wee run from Glasgow to Oban and back, crackin day, lovely scenery and about 10 deg C and dry so not bad.... pic from the top of the Rest and be Thankfull, now open after the landsip. You can see the slip in the picture, a grey bit that caught the current road and the old road below!! When you drive past there's some big rocks there that look as if they could come down

Topped the bikes off with Stabil and fresh fuel today and then tucked them away and plugged them in for the winter. You can ride all year here if you really want, but for me it’s only enjoyable from late May to early October.

Drink as much of their coke, coffee and tea as you possibly can. Then start on the biscuits. Don't have a poo for a couple of day and then use their convenience, bog rolls aren't cheap these days.simbo wrote: Booked the GS in at Williams for it's annual service, £182 for Engine oil and filter and Final drive oil change.

Changed the air filter and spark plugs, whilst I had the panels off fitted extra indicators/DRLs.
