Haha will do :smile: but yeah you might be right... something positive = something negative and something negative = something positive :wink:
Oli hope you got home alright!

Got to spend today on the bike. Took pet to a job interview the long way, which was fun; then i had to wait at the place for the interview (90min!) and head home again via the a12 :rolleyes:

So got home and we decided pet, pets housemate, me and my father would go for a bimble. Meaning the bikes out would be my cbr, gsxr6, triumph trophy and an R1, And we'd all head to Sauff Enndd. A good plan yes?

Well the trophy refused to start, as did the teapot. My father can't ride the sv as it's uncomfortable, so i've ended up on the sv, he's on the cbr, and we've bimbled. I've got bored of the a127 but stayed at the back, we've hit traffic everywhere, and the sv just can't keep up with the other bikes when we get a clear stretch of road. and we kept going through built up areas, so rubbish ride out. Until we headed back, and i've worked out where we are, so told them i'm going the long way home and gone. (this is where i went wrong) -they've followed


I love this route! However i'm now in trouble as i know the roads and was pootling along quite merrily enjoying myself and lost my father and pet's flatmate, and pet at a couple of corners. On the sv :biggrin: and thats not how you ride in a group.
