Will be zooming around with Nikki this weekend but that's as big a group as possible at the mo.

As the first post urges, we really must behave ourselves as the leash is released.

I went out yesterday - on my own. Bit of a chance cos' me and Jane are in the super lockdown group as she is "special". Stayed calm as us bikers are in the spotlight and do not want the retired colonels frothing at the mouth. Felt so good when I got home, cobwebs gone from brain and big grin on face made me realise how much I love biking.

Was nice to get out yesterday.
Plenty of bikers out but just in pairs. I even dropped in on West Bay on to see if that magnet would prove too much for the masses but no. Just 2 bikers there with a few other pairs more towards the front.

Will be out again soon. Not today but maybe tomorrow. Got some miles to do now to make up for lost time.

Out today with Nikki blowing the cobwebs away. Well more like a gentle puff with a 125 but still it's on the bikes.

I'll hold my hand up, was 3 bikes. We don't ride close together - do our own speeds, just happens to be similar.. . . .
Was good until middayish when everybody came out - for God's sake stay at home so we can go ride our bikes.

Nikki and I have been out on our bikes. Saw several groups but none more than 4. Don't see any problems with that as long as social distancing is kept when people stop.

Might be different with Harley riding groups. If the lead sneezes the following riders would catch it on their beards. :-)

Surely as long as your not all getting of shaking hands and having lunch on the green close together does it really matter how many bikes are together riding really not like 2 people are trying to sqeeze into 1 lid

You've progressed on from the gixxer then? Cool.
