@gav525 Make sure to keep the insta stories coming to make the rest of us sad lmao.

That Garage looks like paradise. V8, convertible, superbike, project bike, car lift. Mini fridge and a microwave and you could live in there no problem!

@Polobrat666 That should be amazing too, fingers crossed you get the weather! Should be interesting to see how the Tracer is over that sort of distance!

Lol, cheers @warren, what you can't see is the damp and mice that come with having an agricultural shed lol. It's getting there slowly though, have the toilet and sink in, but running out of room to build the wee mancave that I want in there. Then it should be ready for living in when she kicks me out 😂

I'll be updating Insta when I can, most probably will be under the influence for most of it though!

The day I did the big run to Donegal it wasn't my arse that was the problem, it was my wrists... NC500 may well be the prompt to retrofit cruise control 😆

Made it to the hotel near Assen. Ended up joining on with a crowd from Newcastle that I met on the ferry so went to Arnhem and then up to Assen. Cold enough today, and hailed for 5 mins an all!

Bike parked up til Monday when I head down to the Ring, fully intend on being drunk for the next few days!

Lol never even noticed.. must have been making progress down the road to dislodge the indicator 😆. My own downpipes could do with the same but sure when a bike gets used a lot it will happen. Aye I noticed that CBR, bit of a mad machine!

Left the house this morning and within 2 miles the rubber edge blew off my screen and slapped me up the face, my indicator fell out and the mounting bracket broke on my pillion seat cowl. Had to turn and head home, pushed the indicator in and the rubber back on, but had to put my pillion seat on. Stopped in Maghera after the show and bought some gorilla glue, glued the edge on and indicator in as they kept coming off. Also tried to glue the pillion cowl back together, hopefully it holds
