Default Suns out and the weekends coming

Looks like its going to be a fine weekend. I cant aford new suspension until mid next month (cant afford to put it on credit card either just come back from Scotland holiday). So Ill be out n about on the Versys, it will be an early good Friday start and head off into Derbyshire then probabaly Leek, Castleton, Glossop, back via the back way over to the dams and back through Chatsworth.

Saturday with friends for a party then bike hopefully Sun/Mon as well, so if you see a white Versys waving frantically at you its a CBRF rider in disguise.

That's what a tank bag is for Matt

Me, I'm back to work Saturday for a week, enjoying the weather while I can.

You will get your own back during the summer when I have to wait for weekends and you are on your days off.
Any luck sourcing the part? anything you need me to do whilst you are out at sea?

Put the lad on the back of my bike. I'll change his hairstyle

I hate it when people delete their posts.
