Peak district

Post by bobsnicholson »

Don't know what came over me but i decided to have a run around the Peak District today.
Sunny when i left home. Within 10 mins it was persisting down, i plodded on heated grips and seat on, screen up to it's highest. Turned out to be a really great ride. Roads and passes i have not been on before.
Wanted to put a few pictures up but can't get them off my phone onto the pc. I am as much use as half a scissor, and a back pocket in a vest.
Can't get the radio off AM onto FM.
Can't get the Sat Nav sound to come back on.
Can't get the Sat Nav to "Go Home".
Can't get the air temp or fuel left in the tank to come up.
All the above are there cause they have been before, just don't know how to get to them.
AND, the sound still won't come through my head set.
Frustrated.

Making the sat nav talk to my crash helmet was the pinnacle of my technology journey so far. I love being able to hear the instructions instead of looking at the scree,

I just wish I knew how I did it. I bet I couldn't do it again :shock:

I think the real answer is find a good condition 1950s bike. Non of this nonsense to get riled up about.

If i knew someone who would look after the mechanical s on it for me i would buy one.
