It's going to be a baptism of fire.

Rear wheel drive, excess of power and torrential rain..... I m just hoping to keep it on the black stuff (blush)

Better weather for New Car Day than a New Bike Day. :D

Fwiw I quite enjoy sitting comfortable, warm & dry in my cage when it's shitty weather outside. I actually like train journeys under those circumstances too.

Parents evening. Took the opportunity to finish work early and went out for a curry after with the wife.
