Went to cassington bike night yesterday (mon), it was heaving , I arrived at 6,30pm and the marshals were struggling to find parking spaces for the bikes that were arriving and this was the overflow bike park (re.giant sports field). As for the village centre you could barely move. I did see other 14's there , a black on a 55 plate parked near the pub. Also three leaving with a XJR1300. Any body on here??.

Still getting out twice a week here north of Wgton NZ.  Days have been 9 or 10 and night temps down to 1 or 2 .
At 120 kph its chilly but my rides are just 160kms return (just a nice amount for this oldish fella!)
Wearing long johns under my full ex race suit (which has shrunk a bit around the middle !!  lol ).
Up for a new knee so getting some riding in before the Op !!!!!

Good onya Roo. Yep it's starting to get cool now. Had a couple of rides of a similar duration, 160k round trip to see Dad. Not very bike fit now. Nice when it's warm.
Another great day on the right side of the grass.😎

Those temps are not far away from our summer this year, had a week or so of nice warm temps but back to cool, damp & windy now, the liner only came out of my jacket a month ago be time to put it back in soon I recon  :facepalm:

Yesterday we rode to Esk via Coominya and Atkinson dam. Breakfast at Nash Gallery which was nice, it has new owners and they're still finding their feet. However the food was good and plentiful.

Tenterfield to Warwick for jumpers and jazz watched our friend Desley do a set with the Stingrays, a very tight band 👍🙏
Checked out the crochet coverings on trees, cars etc.
Warmer today I think 15 degrees 🥶
Back home now a balmy 22 degrees and ready for an early night 😴😴

Went to Calne Bike meet yesterday, sun was out and so were about 6000 other bikes, place was packed with just about every bike you could imagine.  I did stumble on the daftest bike there and one of the best, even found a katana bodied 1400.  I counted about 10 or so other 1400's there as well, anyone form here?

Admin, can you remove one of the duplicate pictures, I don't know how to.
Keep the rubber side down.          Mick

6000 bikes is impressive 👍
We would only experience that number of bikes at MotoGP or possibly WSBK @ Phillip Island.
They have an impressive website for Calne and it looks like a nice town, not far from London 🧐

I took the tractor to Whitby. It's a great little town & it was steampunk weekend so some great outfits to see too. Not that I took many pics considering I walked around for about 4 hours.

Cold to some I know, but hot enough for me.
