Re: Blue skies yesterday
Indeed i do and indeed i do miss them roads. Fantastic bikers riding.
WOW how good is that map thing, never seen that before. Spose if you press the right buttons one could get so much info. Love it.
Doing tentative plans to visit the area in the new MH with HOPEFULLY a bike on the trailer towed behind. Fingers crossed.

Marbella way?
Done that in the car
Have biked it down to Guadix, then over the mountains to the coast.

Re: Blue skies yesterday
It all looks so exciting! Maybe it's the sky and the sunshine.
Yesterday looked just like that, when I looked upwards.Then you look down at the puddle of frozen mud you're standing in and remember it's British winter. It was still a lovely day for being outside and walking.
I saw daffodils, catkins and snowdrops. The daffodils are something of a local mystery. They always flower in January and nobody can work out why. A good excuse for a walk though.
Highjacked en route by Dick Turpin, our village highwayman. He demands payment of a crust of bread or a handful of bird seed before he backs off. I never encourage him by feeding him, so usally have to fight off the beak and claws.
He is disguised as a cock pheasant. As people have started to walk down my lane, just to see for themselves, I'm considering selling bird food from my roadside stall. If he puts on enough weight he'll have to stop jumping up and hitting me from behind
I'd much rather be out on my bike, but at least it's never dull on foot.

Re: Blue skies yesterday
So pretty! Just looking at spring flowers gives me hope for better things to come.
I think I'm just fed up with taking so long to get better, not being able to settle, because of house selling and not knowing where I'm going to end up and most of all, because my Street Triple is temporarily dead.
I can't wait to get it back together and get a few hundred miles in. Once that's done I'll be able to look forward again.
Love the Kawasaki, but it's never going to be a comfortable, long distance ride
