Treated myself in Feb. Only had 1600 miles on it, seemed a no brainer.
I was breaking in two new tyres today, therefore a bit of caution for first 100 and in process decided to see how far I could get on a full tank.
So 360 and says 45 miles to go.

Great area, we lived in Calvine for 12 years before moving south to the Borders in 2014..........in case you have not seen it all the roads featured in the pictures will be closed weekend of 19th Sept for the delayed Etape Caledonia......apart from Moto marshals that is.......

Boy, was it nice out today. Being a fair weather rider this could well be my last ride of year. 200+ miles reached my 5,000 mile annual target.
Last night’s TV weather forecast was spot on.
So I waited for the morning frost to disappear then headed SW to some of the country’s best stretches of tarmac.
One closure on the A71 was a minor hassle, but otherwise a great ride. Some roads for the first time. The B735 was so much fun heading south that I turned round to enjoy 10 miles north, then south again. Big grin all the way. And I’d happily pay a £1 to enjoy the smooth tarmac into the wee toon of Sinclairston.
Dalmellington to A74 is stunning when quiet. Main target was the infamous A702, followed by the road to Biggar and onwards. 2 bike bobbies were heading south on A702 - maybe having as much fun as me.
Temp was over 10 much of the time, but boy it was chilly down to 2.5 degrees after 6pm. Thank goodness for hot grips and hot vest.

As the weather was kind of on the warm side, for the time of year, I decided to head north for a change . . .
Just as I was about to move on, some jaggy heads decided to lift themselves out of the grass . . .
Another view of the loch from along the road . . .

Roads surfaces quite often crap, but still managed just over a total of 1100 miles this week, on Blood Bike and IAM run.
