I’m not sure of the origin of this picture, but in my opinion it’s worth a look. If you are the owner and you would like me to credit the picture or remove it then please let me know

do what the doctor says …
On the road to recovery after a bit of surgery … and I can’t disagree with the caption to the second picture below and it’s going to be at least another couple of weeks before I can get on a bike!
spanish road speeds …
Back in January I read about a change in speed limits on Spanish roads. Given the numbers of UK riders who will doubtless be heading out there this year it’s probably worth being aware of the changes. The changes come from an amendment to something called Article 47 of the General Circulation Regulations. In practice […]
out an about in the odd February weather – kawasaki 650 vulcan s
The rather odd February weather provided me with an unexpected opportunity to get a few miles in on one of my bikes – and for me my first ride of 2019. All in all it was decent enough and also provided me with the first ‘biker breakfast’ If you’ve missed the recent posts with some […]
machine art X heads – engine covers for the boxer
Inevitably Blog posts from me slow down over the winter period, some days it feels like it’s too cold to go into the garage never mind contemplate getting one of the bikes out. I do have some plans for later in 2019, but more of that in later posts – this post is just about […]

The email had been prompted by me reading the August edition of the monthly Fast Bikes magazine and they had featured a used Suzuki GSR-600. The bike had previously been mine and I […]
it may be autumn but …
Despite us heading towards the middle of October and the onset of Autumn having the potential to make memories of a steaming hot summer seem like an age ago – the sun has continued to shine and provide plenty enough warmth for some very comfortable riding. Just the other week I had thought that would […]
not been on this one for a while…
With the continued decent weather this week I decided I’d get out on the Kawasaki Vulcan for a couple of hours – and not for the first time was soon reminded of just how much fun this bike is. Despite its modest 650cc engine size it really can get a shift on and is so […]
bit of moto guzzi time …
Decent September weather provided an opportunity for a ride on the Guzzi V7 yesterday. Although the weather was good and I had all day a combination of things to do and my mind generally being distracted onto other things meant that I was only out for a couple of hours, Having not been on this […]
