But no mention of the right wrist?? Maybe you need to swap hands occasionally so the left gets some conditioning too (muscle) ;)

Cracking days riding, good weather always helps, roads were a tad busy, but no issues for a bike ;)
Breakfast at Lucy's, great to catch up with Mick as well, then down to the AV8 via Burford and Fairford, then back up to Lucy's for some delicious cake.... and a steady ish lol... ride home.
Nice day, now downing my second large gin, very a little sleepy now ha ha.
Sorry we did not get to see Jack and Monty, hope you guys are well.

Top day today. It's been too long since I got out on the bike for a blast.

Good to see Mick, thanks for showing up, it was an unexpected pleasure. Monty and Jack were missed, we'll catch up soon.

It was a reasonably sedate ride out as after 3 years off a sports bike it all feels a bit alien. Time in the saddle is what's needed.

Nice ride out apart from some twot on a blood bike, who was complaining when Frankie overtook him then blocked me for a few miles. He was hogging the centre of the road, doing overtakes leaving me little or no time to do the same and hanging out on the other side after his overtakes so I couldn't follow.

I can only show patience for so long. I think I made him jump when I went for it but I had been watching the road and had seen that the way was clear of oncoming traffic.

Great too meet you guys again this morning, been ages since I had a decent ride, certainly the longest ride on the 660 to date, great little bike even without all the power, you just have to prepare for overtakes as you don’t have a fistful of power to play with :D . The MV is thing of beauty, love the stealth look (inlove) .
Certainly been too long since I met Frankie, will have to try and meet up again soon.
The 999 will be back on the road very soon, just need to get her MOT’d and she’s good to go.
Sorry I couldn’t join you for the ride afterwards but life was just getting in the way.
