Hi Gadgies,
As I said in my opening post....I had a run down to see my daughter for a wee visit (and a curry....honest dad I'm not hungry). I took some photos on the way. At last I've got round to uploading them.
The bag on the back is actually a HG tank bag (too box still in the shop). I needed it for carrying a change of clothes and my trusty Sambas. I didn't want to put the panny's on just for that.
Although it was cold on the day....at least it stayed dry:) I only got a wee bit cold (fingers and toes...should have put on thick socks...doh!) near the end of the trip (5-10 miles near the coast) when it was 0deg for the last 50-60 miles. I can give a big thumbs up to my HG textile jacket and HG rocket leather trousers. Comfy and warm the whole day. Also thumps up for Daytona boots and my HG mitts over my summer gloves.
Anyway, the trip was from Peterhead down through Aberdeen, Dundee, Perth, Striling, Glasgow and ending up in Greenock at my daughters. A wee walkaround with her and the son-in-law, the said curry, and back home again. Loved the whole day...great bike for that type of thing for me.
The first picture is around Aberdeenshire, then a couple overlooking the Cylde from Greenock, and finally the clocks when I got home to Peterhead later that evening. 415miles round trip.
PS excuse the crud on the bike!!!!
