Don’t forget the temperature! 
I like the information. Your posts are the equivalent of putting on a favourite pair of comfortable shoes.

Havent been out on my bike for a while now, shame as i was starting to get a noticeable benefit fom it. Since i had the forks fixed on my KTM i have been spending most my time on that which really saps my energy, fun though 
Anyway, today i decided to go on a short ride, my daughter is on school hols and to be fair it was her that actually sugested a ride. We went on a short loop along some easy trails along the side of the river and steam railway and ended up going all the way to the end of the trail :shock: i was a bit tired by then but my 8yr old decided we would race back, which, i admit, was hard and by the end of the ride i could deffinatly feel it. The ride took us just under 3hrs which included a couple of short stops along the way, so a long ride at a good pace, i was in top gear most the way back trying to keep up :shock: :facepalm:
Great day, great ride.

Re:
Not a bike, well yes it's a bike. Not retro, well yes it's retro.
Picked up this yesterday on a whim. Hence the recent sales. 1984 GT550 with 12000 miles on the clock. I'm the third owner. Had done 200 miles since 2012. Recommissioned with minimal fuss. This was yesterday evening. Managed 130 miles of 'getting to know you' pootling. Meet Gertie, the other woman in my life.
Oh and if anybody wants any kittens, Mrs HM has just had some.
Lavender at Snowshill about 6 miles from me.
