The Sun has affected the paint on the Arse end of the ZZR......... not sure If you can see it here but it's distinctly different.

You are absolutely right Bob...... trouble is though, I'm getting a bit Paranoid about all the Scamera Vans around....... Back in my Youth I would just ride as fast as I felt safe to do so ...... nowadays, everyone seems to have Dash Cams...... It's taken all the fun out of going for a blast..... and I can't ever see me Maxing out a Bike again.......... even driving the MH I'm constantly looking out for Camera Vans as I really don't want points.

Buy a bike for comfort. I am so enjoying riding at the mo. Smell the cow shit through the country lanes. Don't have to go mad to enjoy riding, so old hat and over rated.
I was out most of this morning. Came across this, lovely spot.

I have the MT09 for just dawdling around, the ZZR is now looking like either a Shed Bike or a Trade in.......... That place looks great....... can't wait till I retire, going to make the most of it just travelling....... hopefully.

We should have been on a plane to Dubai at 7am this day. Grandsons 1st on 17th and we ain't going to be there. Not prepared to take the risk with so many dicks about. We were then due to go onto Aussy for 6/7 or 8 weeks touring in a RV.

Travel, simply love it. On my world map i have pinned 103 different country's i have been to. Would have added another 4 earlier this year had our South American/Canadian trip gone ahead........bastard Covid.

That place looks lovely!

I can't wait to be well enough to get back on the bikes and find places to stop and just look and eat and chat to people.

My first big target will be the Rainbow café in Dorset. I have unfinished business with the cheesecake selection there :D
