I was out all day on my Burman too. I visited my niece in Suffolk. It was great whilst riding but sitting stationary in all the riding gear was near torture. I delayed my return journey until late evening and enjoyed the slightly cooler ride.

The nice lady cooking my burger couldn't understand how dressing in heavy black bike gear in 30degrees was a hobby. :lol:
