I gave Brian chance to join in too, but as it was my own fault for being reactive rather then proactive, it meant I was Billy no mates rider.
I am not the one for taking an hour out of my day to go riding. If I am going to ride, then it has to be a day trip….
That route was rather lovely and scenic too, with hardly any traffic to deal with, apart from a few unavoidable locations, such as getting out of Watford, coming in to Benson, etc.
I managed a short trip out today Ev. Not as long as your bimble.
I set the avoidances on the sat nag, and meandered my way up to the Super Sausage for a bacon buttie, calling in at the Sportsbike shop for a browse on the way home.
