I fancied a ride today so I decided to join the local AIM group at 9am at the Redditch McDs. As I left the house the rain was just starting and temp showing at about 3.5 degree and the black ice warning going off 
Anyway only five turned up so after waiting 30 or so minutes we headed off and immediately become four as the GSXR 750 rider decided the weather wasn't his cup of tea.
That left an 1800 Goldie, BMW k1200GT, Triumph ST (new un) and me. We headed for Meriden, Fillongly, Tamworth, Kings Bromley and then turned south, there was mud and crap everywhere and with poor light conditions and fog and mist everywhere and the usual cage driving numpties who seem unable to find their light switch it was challenging to say the least.
We stopped at McDs at Bassets Pole for a coffee, there was a guy on the car park with a yellow 12GS was that you?
It was an enjoyable ride despite the conditions and the bike looks as if it has been across a ploughed field.
