Today we did just 80 miles with a couple of stops.
Got home and fitted the backrest to Artie.

Kinda boring day I guess, out on the bike (‘cos it was a nice day) to the dentists and a then visit to Motolegends. Got away with just buying Debs a Rukka Lahti liner, despite them telling me just how wonderful the Klim Kodiac was… yeah, £2,300 wonderful, way out of my league.

Then spent this evening moving the rear dash cam to under the rack, probably an easy job but I’m remarkably cack-handed so it took me a couple of hours… blame my OCD!

Names to faces please

Being a bit of a clumsy twat I managed to fall in the ditch taking this one.

That's my trick

Stopped at a Cafe in Rhayader for pie and chips.

£2,300 for an item of bike clothing ??, dear god I’d be looking for a motorcycle for that. The only money I have to spend is £140 odd for the wheel to be straightened :thumb:.

First time out on the bike in 4 weeks (builders skip blocking the garage) I had a run out to Rosie's Cider, possibly the best cider you can buy https://www.rosiescider.co.uk/ Then on to The Old Stores Cafe, Pontblyddyn a cracking place https://www.facebook.com/theoldstorescafe/?locale=en_GB
