Rain Rain Rain, despite a quick ride to Ozwaldtwisle on Thursday, I missed out on the fair weather Friday morning brought.
The usual MANCHESTER rainfall started on Friday afternoon, and hasn't really stopped
I took a drive (in the old transit) to Chorley Yamaha ,to sit on a FJR1300 tourer. Just to see if they fit my ample proportions.
Nice bike.
Looks small "under" me, but it's a nice fit really. Might have to book a test ride..... or two.
www.advrider.com discovered through a twitter follower, is a great forum based site if you want direct advise, contacts and invitations whilst riding in the world.
A few threads within the 'Regions' of the USA, and I have invites for beer, food, riders coming along for a few miles, hotels, chicken dinners, B&B, more beers. and some 'unmissable roads'.
Within 36 hours, I have received 46 messages (all positive), 600+ views, and did I mention invitations for beer.
Threads: Brit Passing through & Road2Manchester
Valentines Day tomorrow. Feb 14th I might, just might be getting confirmation of start dates.
NB: Some mentions on the advrider site have warned of snow, ice and cold weather in the North Eastern states in March...... winter draws on then.
Later dudes.........
