The last ride
« on: March 23, 2011, 08:35:59 PM »
Ended up giving Marco a lift to Riders this morning so he could collect his 2 wheeled HGV I mean BMW RT from the workshop and ended up getting seduced by the porn that is Ducati  :drool

After sadly realising that a new 1198 was outta my pocket money range, I left Marco being chatted up by the sales rep who was doing his best to flog a new BMW GTL 1600 and headed home.

Soon after Marco turns up (still on his old bike thank fcuk lol) and sugested a 'quick spin' ..... So off we headed to Terrys for a burger and a natter, bumped into Rabid Rosie who had been plying her trade around mid Wales from what I can gather  :fishing
Also met Mark Morris and two random West Country yocals (one of which looked like a young Phil from Time Team) who were touring Wales.

Next was an all out sprint down to Mumbles via DSM and the A465  :devil nothing to report other than the fact that I'll miss the warp factor when the blade goes this weekend. Pulled in to Verdis carpark sporting a dark visor, small plate and un-baffled can to be met by 2 bike cops  :shocked . Luckily there were just chilling out with some Bike safe students and raised a head as I passed but nothing more  :sweat

1 x rum and raisin ice cream later and it was time to filter the entire length of Mumbles road and home for tea and medals

This was the last ride i'll be doing on my Blade as it's off to a new home at the weekend.... Next report will be Tiger time  :tup2

 :thumbsup good day out then !  :tup2
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!

A GOOD spin out then Nick sounds like fun on some nice roads too. :cheers
Yer you may miss the Cbr thou for a while but you cant beat upright bars and the beautiful noise a tripple makes when on song  :devil :devil

I had to drive 320 miles today in the car and didnt get back home till 6:30pm 10 hrs in a car with sweet sweet sunshine.

Glad Marco got his bike back and cant wait to see everyone with there new steeds on Sunday  :thumb_up
