Bike looks great. Was it scorching hot there? I attempted to go for a spin this morning, but between the heat, the melting tar and the fine grit the council chucked everywhere, I decided I was better off at home relaxing.

I thought your Avatar was a joke, but now I realise it was a better looking version of you Steve!

Spooky! I've got a shot of my bike in the exact same place a few years ago, albeit facing the opposite direction. It's a great road. I passed a couple of cyclists on the way up - they looked a bit hardcore - like they would have overtaken me had we been going downhill!

Mr. Spock is my role model so be advised; I possess no (discernible) sense of humour.

It's all VFR (DCT) round here now. STILL missing my 1100s tho.
