Spring - Clocks change, sun shines, and out come the hibernating bikes...

But it's not a happy time for everyone.


Safe to say, the Cumbrian roads have a dark cloud over them at the moment.

It was a lovely day in the Lakes yesterday, stay safe.

I use my XT all the year round, but it must be said that the winter here in Roma is nice and mild compared to Cumbria, at worst we get some rain and some cold days but never tooo cold!!

Yes - loads of sports bikes out Sunday. I got muscled out of the way twice by bikers wishing to tailgate the vehicle in front of me with no opportunity to overtake.
