What did you do today?
Re: What did you do today?
386 miles to Wales and back, me and one of my riding buddies were joined by two others on KTM 1290 super dukes. It turned into a road race. I like to think that I am a swift rider, these boys took it up another notch. It was sort of fun, but also a relief when they lost me in traffic on the way home. Back to riding solo I think.

Had a 330 mile trundle up to Newark and back, whilst the weather is good. A lot of 70 mph, cruise control, on the motorways/dual carriageways, but still getting 62 mpg (fill up to fill up).
Stopped by the Trent at Fiskerton to relieve my posterior - I think an upgrade to a Sargent seat might be in the offing!

Led another ride out for the local IAM group, through Wensleydale & Swaledale in the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Re: What did you do today?
Ordered some of these. They were very helpful sending two pairs a L and a M and send back the one that doesn't fit.
Videos interesting.

No just jolly for 14 hours. If people want to go to brecons and ride technical challenging back lanes with great views always willing to help.
