Got carried away.
« on: June 30, 2011, 08:02:10 PM »
 :old Intended to go for a quick ride out today :scratch It ended up as a 240 mile round trip. :eek I was enjoying the views so much that I just rode until I got fed up going North  then turned around and headed home,, all downhill :rofl...
I set the satnav for a more direct return from Dolgellau and it took me down some great two-lane B roads,, and some single track roads,,, But mostley great bikeing roads.. I think I might try that again some time.
I haven't been up that part of the country for a long time. I'd forgotten how nice it is..

Did another 400 and odd miles again today... was intending to go and see my daughter in Aldershot. Did the M4 thing till about 30 miles after the bridge then got fed up... made a little diversion via devizes and salisbury and a few little roads that looked good.. The wife was with me this time and she loved it... Told her it was a taster for the Scotland trip... We have had to massge each others rear ends a bit since getting back but hay, thats another plus :rofl

Sound like you had 2 great days  :clap  :clap

Where do find the time ??
Bikes don't leak oil',.... they mark their territory :o)           Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of fuel before you can think straight. Growing old is manditory... but growing up...well that my friends...is OPTIONAL!
