Enjoy the ride. Lovely day for it
Later this week I'm going to try and get permission to try driving. It's all got very complicated with appointments cancelled and nobody working.
I've worked so hard. Finger's crossed. I'd love to be going out on one of the bikes.

Well i just got back from a run to Tissington (picnic by myself) and a coffee stop (my own) on the top road overlooking Rudyard Lake.
Loads and loads of bikes out. Two didn't get home. Just before Tissington chopper in a field being loaded up with a guy that had bent his bike. Didn't see him but saw what a mess he had made of his bike.
Then bugger me coming out of Tissington another biker down. He was sat up and the medics were working on him. Didn't look too bad.
They go mad eh. Not been on the bike for months probably and straight away doing their MM impressions.
A couple of pics will follow. Can't be arsed at the mo.

Gary Parsons only post's every once in a while..... the BFO has 41 members but only a handful post and It's a bit quiet there at the moment....... I keep adding crap just to get things going but It's not that busy.

Rach was at Rudyard today.
I was above Tissington, near the Roaches, before heading... everywhere...
Lunch was at Monsall Head, sitting in a field overlooking the viaduct.
Popped past Chatsworth House.
Took some lovely back roads
Nipped into Aldi for ice-creams

Going to Tissington my sat nav took me down some tracks (too small to call lanes) that were hard to ride. At some points it was harder than Hardknott, shit mesen.
You wouldn't believe there was a lockdown in force based on the amount of cars and bikes that were on the road today (and a couple of bikes that weren't)
