MotoGP Aragon 2018

I swithered about posting in "Ride Reports" since we flew from Edinburgh to Barcelona, and drove in hired car to Alcaniz. But on a borrowed scooter we did ride four laps in the outside service road, and three laps in the inside service road at the Aragon MotoGP so there was news worthy uti...

Re: Scotland ride outs

Guys

I am based near Auchterarder, and currently working 28/28 in Kazakhstan. I don't see much of an improvement in the weather for a few days, early next week (mid week days) may be interesting. Then I'll be looking to go out late May - early June.

I haven't been into London for ages .... then had an adventure on Wednesday .... I was flying Edinburgh - London City - Frankfurt - Uralsk, and Lufthansa cancelled my plane to Frankfurt.

Not that I will ever take it to London, but they have said that one of the worst roads in Scotland for air quality is in Crieff. So if the trend of Local EZ does catch on then we are safe it seems.
