        Kinda chilly, but it still felt better.

          Took a ride to go see my step-son at his group home with the wife following in the truck. Things went well although I had to dial down the idle a bit. I need to get out and sync the carbs soon but at least it still had some good pull through the first three gears (stayed in town). I noticed the tachometer is bouncing around on me like crazy again at the 4500 mark.

            Got about 430km's done yesterday with our December GSR and Katana Australia ride.

            Perfect weather, not too hot but no rain or showers and not a lot of traffic to spoil the fun

            As promised Charlie there are pic's this time!

              Went for a 60 mile loop on damp roads. Old school muscle had me laughing coming out of 2nd gear hairpin. No photos during ride with a broken starter clutch, so one after in the garage.

                  Pete,

                  Thanks for the pictures. I'm shut up in the garage freezing, so it's nice to see someone having fun.

                      Took the new bike for a short canyon blast this afternoon.



                      It will be a good one once I get the 675 thing going.

                        I always keep a couple of bikes at the ready whenever the salt, sand, snow and ice is off of the roads for a couple of days and the Sun is out.
                        As long as it is above 25-27 degrees anyway.

                          It was about 60 today, maybe 50 up in the hills. Very nice.

                            72 here today rode 140 miles. Few pics from the ride below. Oh and today was the first day that I have really pushed the bike in the curves. It was a blast but it finished off my fork seals. They were pumping out more oil by the time I got home than the Alaskan pipe line. So I may have to park it for the winter until I get the cash to do the seals and the springs.

                              Went out with a few guys from work today, had a ball! Did some fun tight back roads on the way up to Mt Mee, enjoyed the run over there and through Woodford up to Bellthorpe Range Rd (always a blast) and back again.

                              Interesting variety of bikes for the run too, from my little 450 to a DR400, BMW R1100GS, R6, GSXR 750, and a GSX 1400.

                                Quick Sunday Trip Around Kent, UK

                                Met some of the local Suzuki Owner Club guys for coffee at the Blue and White and then off for a autumn (fall) scoot about:




                                View from the top of the downs over to Ashford, Kent, UK

                                Chilham Village, Kent, UK

                                Chilham Castle, Kent, UK

                                The River Stour, near Canterbury, Kent, UK





                                Temperature about 11 deg C (52 deg F) and sunshine all the way.

                                Come and visit the UK for the best scenery.
