Good on ya Grunda for turning out!!
I did a quick circuit yesterday from Durham to Chester-le-Street and Newcastle and back home again. Got home frozen to the bones...but with the usual grin from ear-to-ear. Keep the faith!

Come on you Southern comrades, how was your day???

Speaking up for the soft southerners here - I went out on my 350 - just 10 miles to warm up the fluids as I changed the fork and clutch oils on my return. Only saw one other bike and it was a big shiny harley with an old grey beard on board. He looked very happy and gave me a wave which in turn made me smile - nice to see someone else out enjoying themselves on a bloody cold day.
