Good fun getting into work today, is there a grit shortage already?

Be careful everyone, especially those like me who have to use the bike to commute.

I'm craving one last ride, even just round the block, I've not ridden for over 20 years and the bug got me good when I passed a few months ago. I suppose as long as I take it easy I should be okay.

Weather prevailing I'll give her the last run until
Next year this weekend, can't help myself!!

I think I'm in the same boat aswell :( If I can ride, I can't go to work, If I can't go to work, I don't get paid.... Crying or Very sad it's a hard life being a contractor!

On the sort of upside my boss doesn't live that far from me so I could possibly bump a lift Very Happy and a pay rise!

Be careful guys my mate danny has made a mess of his triumph daytona 675 this morning on ice. Luckily he is relatively ok apart from a few minor aches & pains.

Paul.

I hope your mate recovers soon. Hopefully his bike won't be too badly damaged also. I will certainly be extra vigilant!

Hope he recovers quickly Paul.

Well that's made up my mind, not going to the launch of the Mr Yamaha store (into a Premier dealership) near me tonight then. The reception there is usually a tad cooler than the current weather anyway, and I'm quite happy to miss the first viewing of the 2012 R1.
