Motorcycles, dogs, family - not necessarily in that order.
Great weekend at The Malle Beach Race on the little 100cc Kawasaki G4. Didn't cover myself in glory, but had a great time!

Just took the G4 to Thame to get an idea of average speed for a possible trip up to London. 37mph average, and on the way back I got 60.5mph top speed, with maybe a bit more to go. The run up Brill Hill on the way home (to see how it would fare up the Chilterns) was pretty slow going!

Took advantage of a brief respite in the weather to get the VTR out. Roads were crappy, and had to ride through two floods, but still good to be out. Bike all cleaned up and tucked away until the next chance.

Wish I was doing this, rather than preparing my Mac for an HDD swap. 🙄

Not sure when I’ll next get out on the custard coloured conveyance VTR1000. Hopefully some dry and not too arctic weather in the next week or so.

Looking through photos for my Bluesky header image, I remembered this gem from when we came across Stoners winning bike in a Cotswold art gallery! The manager let us have a sit, and it was surprisingly comfy. Certainly looks better than the current bikes

Didn’t post much on the ‘other place’ but might try to be more proactive here. I’ll start with an artwork I did to celebrate Fraser Nash winning the 2L category in the 1953 Le Mans 24.

Pleased to have left the hellsite that was Twitter. Let’s see what this place is like…
