Took the Mutley out for a quick thrash and to try my new leathers too. :) Had to make a few detours to avoid the very dark clouds hovering about but managed to miss them all even though their were wet cars driving about with full lights on. :D

Good fun and the new leathers are super comfortable from the off.

To be honest I think the chances of me getting out of work ever again are slim, I honestly thought my boss was even gunna ask me to cancel my honeymoon due to other staff being off long term sick.

Doesnt matter if its not dry tho surely mate coz I would imagine as soon as the new bikes arriver you'll be off out and getting aquainted for a good few hours at least!
