A personal message Ged; could you please get off your arse and get on whatever wheels you have at the mo and get out and about into the local/semi local area, like you've done in previous years, and take some photos of whatever catches your eye. It's always very interesting and enjoyable when you do it.

Sorry chap, Dave's pretty much hit the nail on the head. I picked up the Gnu, my W800, at the start of April but could only get a 600 mile service at the end of April. With nigh on 500 miles of planned trips it didn't leave a lot of leeway so I've had a slow start to the year. Just as well as I've been uncharacteristically busy for this time of year.

I did take a few pics, but just of the bike in various places.

Just picked up The Gnu:-

First day, parked up at Amberley Chalk Pits Museum:

Overlooking the boats in Shoreham By Sea Marina:-

Image

Out and about in West Sussex:-

..and East Sussex, sheltering just outside Horsham from Gnu's first taste of rain:

Where 3 counties meet, it's Hammer time! (Hampshire, Sussex and Surrey)

Image

...and some crap phone pics from a very deserted Box Hill and Bury Hill the Thursday before Good Friday:-

Image
Image

The Gnu is now run in...and I'm still friggin' busy! :o

Tonight 's trip is just to Worthing to see Carl Fogarty and James Whitham in "Foggy and Whit, givin' it gas!".

And then you make it worse with some lovely set pix, 'ticularly the second one (the first is like a scene from a horror pix).

Glad you're busy and have a good summer.

Pig ugly is the new suave don'cha know? :lol:

Yeah could do with being a BIt less busy but careful what I wish for, ie I'm enjoying earning ore than I'd earn on minimum wage even if just for a while. :D

Last night's trip was just to Worthing to see Foggy & Whit - Givin' It Gas! (Guess who won the signed Foggy T shirt on the raffle? :D ) and we parked up in good company, left to right: Dave's GS650 BMW, my lad's CB500 Honda, MZ ETZ250 (owned from new by a really nice local guy), Triumph T160 Trident, The Gnu
