It's cold but ok around our way, 52 miles into work this morning on the R1, cruised at 90 for long stretches with the odd quick burst to get out of the spray.  Slowed to 85 for plod in a Volvo but he was busy with an Astra, the beauty of keeping the standard pipe on is it doesn't attract unwanted attention.

I dont know why I bloody bother posting anything on here to be honest, not as if ive said "hey everyone get on your bike and lob it down the fucking road" because there isnt the grip there is in summer!

Ah, don't be like that, we love you really, we just don't like cold.
