So Trixters there's still time to book a room and have some fun in the "SUNNY" West Country

Too many reasons, wife has a night out with the girls, would struggle to organise a sitter for our 9 year old and would be dumping too much on people at work at such short notice. Wish I'd got organised now.
I know, regrets :roll:

Wet stuff stopped falling, bright thing in the sky looks to be appearing again? don't know what this is honest!!

Big problem now what lid to wear with what visor?

Decision made i think Craft lid smoke visor or Roof boxer black visor or schuberth with photocromic visor insert fitted

Decisions decisions decisions
My bike shines when it rains!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
