"Tom Selleck"! Har har.
Hey Stig just saw on the lunchtime weather forecast that they're hitting 16c (61F) in northern Scotland today. In mid-November. Strange times. Enjoyed a very mild ride this morning, it's great. Not so great were the wet leaves all over my Doc's driveway. As I gave it a handful leaving whilst banked over, the rear end stepped out least a foot. Sure gave me a good cardio workout! (And 5 points for the scrambles dab...)
Yeah....wet riding requires full attention...or at least a passing thought
to what's under the tires. Even a 150* has a burst of throttle at low throttle settings. Which can get you into trouble. (so, I never mess with Dr P's looking for "more acceleration!" off the line) *Asia builds 50's to "spurt" away from stop lights, as well.
There are so many wide painted lines and arrows going through the city out to my rural coffee village.
I know where the worst ones are, and make certain I don't have to slow & turn across them when being followed closely by cars at speed! I alter my route on those days. Doesn't help that I'm doing it in the dark
Riding through tunnels of trees ....I am on guard. Most of my route is through areas of broad fields....just need to watch for deer, there.....a lot of Selleck groupies out there.
