Working is nothing compared to retirement. You will work harder than ever with no days off for the rest of your life

Took the old girl for the first time in ages. Hips weren't happy, but managed to do a 100 mile round trip. It reminded me how good the bike is. But in temps on the dash showing 28.5 c, I got home in a soggy mess. I always keep an ice-cold towel with me, but that just caused me to get hotter.
Take the KTM out tomorrow. Just to see if i can stay cooler.
The English moan when it's cold and moan when it's hot. It's just a fact of life living in the UK
