You jammy gits. I’ll be in the office all week.
Might have to go to work on the bike one day, and go home via Matlock.

I also missed the chance for a ride today, but I took a lot of stuff to sell at an autojumble and made enough money to pay for my BikeTrac tracker to be fitted to the bike plus the first years subscription and a new crash helmet. I can't believe how much I sold, so worth the sacrifice in the end. I went with some friends from the old MCN forum and our local one as well so it was a fun day and we all bought each other's junk, as usual. I'll make up for it tomorrow, hopefully. I don't plan to work until after lunch, so should get some miles in before then.

NC, i used think that until i went out on my Harley Fat Bob (honest) in Dubai in August, it was 46c and 90% humidity, i can assure you, even in flip flops, tank top and short's it was far far far too effing hot to be on a bike.

To be fair, I don't tend to ride the Ninja much in July - best to wait until August, when it's cooled down a bit - or go our at 7am, back home by 9am.bobsnicholson wrote: ↑Mon Jun 25, 2018 1:08 pm NC, i used think that until i went out on my Harley Fat Bob (honest) in Dubai in August, it was 46c and 90% humidity, i can assure you, even in flip flops, tank top and short's it was far far far too effing hot to be on a bike.
I did the Windmills of Cervantes last year, and nearly passed out on the way home! I felt ill for two day!
