Motorcycle life – motorbike travel and pictures
Last night Paul and I nipped along to the Tameside based OKE Charity in Droylsden. Paul ran there from work, and then ran home after our visit and therefore used it as part of his final preparations for his 100 mile Ultra Marathon on Saturday …. I also made a point of using it as […]

We were just teased a little over the weekend with a hint of summer, unfortunately I didn’t have a great deal of time to be on the bike due to other commitments, but I did manage a couple of hours out and about 90 miles on the Vulcan yesterday morning … some pictures below.
I was asked recently to look at a product that essentially is an online storage/archiving facility for your own digital legacy. It’s called Vivala.me and it looks like a pretty neat and secure, online service for not only fully protecting all your digital information, but then actually managing it properly if the worst were to […]
