just got back... no idea where the fuck I ended up....
it all went abit tits up on `Mortimer Lane on that 180 degree switch back... it's a 1 in 1 on the inside line and slippery as *Uck... took that much wider and managed to come abit unstuck did a really cool wheel spin.... while sliding backwards.... then obviously a not very technical dismount.... not a crash more a whoopsie and the old cow not sastified with needing a touch of tarmac... the bastard then slid down took me out so I'm sitting on top of 20 year old beauty sliding it down the road towards some poor unsuspecting old boy in car...
slid about 15m... stopped had a bit of moment shouting *uckit...!
took a moment to workout how best to pick it up it being so slippery... the old boy was keen to help, but i had to make sure he didn't become my next victim... cos he was on the down hill side... so had I lifted the bike it could have fallen on him..
he told me if he had a pound for every bike he's seen on it side he'd have a stack on money... got the bike safe thanked chummie... checked the road was clear for him to pass...
then I thought use the alternative location at which poin the satnav had a moment and sent me down some tiny little lane... that took me past underhill reservoir into another tiny lane... so narrow it was more like a foot path... and finally I ended up near junction 36 on the M1... all that took ages... then heading back to junction 28 for Matlock the weather was shit...
I thought bollocks to this... turned south and the sunshine was constant till I got home...
funny really I rode up in horrible weather, sub 10m visibility in places, loads of "icehole" drivers about got stuck in a traffic pile up delayed finally made goodtime... not a bad out when you can climb on a 20 year old beauty... and have a laugh...
biggest injury was my kitkat got well fucked....!
