sun was out today, woohooo
ran to the shed, pulled out the bikes, they both start up and I felt good.
one is out of mot and the others rear tyre is abysmal, I have no idea how I missed it.
bikes in shed, me in house for a full days sulkathon.
I will be in the nearest tyre place tues morning, that's for sure.
i only just fitted a new pair of michelins, wasn't absolutely needed but we had a new rep in at work and was trying his hardest to get our business and did an unbelievable deal on some pairs of tyres, got the wife a pair of PR3's for her z1 a pair of PP3's for my tuono and a pair of PSS for my RSVR bigbore

here's hoping we get some fine weather so I can get out of the way of the rat race a few times a month.
going to try the wife on a 125 scooter this year..

Not a "commuter" per se for me but this is my 2000 Honda VRF800 -

i was just looking through some old photo's and came across this one
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h1...psqthxtk4y.jpg
it was taken in January 1987 next to the blue lagoon Belmont i remember it being bloody freezing
the lad you see was riding the CB 400n with a chair attached, it was gutless and scary as hell above 50mph
both bikes were mine at the time i think we were getting the 400n ready to sell, in the end i think i swapped it for a reliant robin :)
i remember the 350 valve was traded for a suzuki RG 250 which had been stan stevens tuned with the usual extras, if i can find a photo of it i wll post it
unfortunately back then i didn't take that many photos which was a crying shame i don't have many photos of my biking days
the lad in the photo still rides i gave up a long time ago
