Yesterday (Monday) was a nice fine day, so I decided that since I haven't been laning recently I would venture out - on my own! I haven't been riding for some weeks because my right leg lost all its strength. No pain, just wouldn't work correctly - and it still doesn't feel 100% but is getting better. Anyw...

11.00 and the suns out, so I decide to go for a bimble, got the bottom of 192 098 just as the farmer was pulling a water hose across the lane, so I stopped for a chat.

We have a brand new forum member - Tibsy - who I took out on Saturday with his mates Ian and Grant. Unfortunately on one of the last lanes of the day (which then made it the very last lane of the day) he hit the edge of a rut and ended up flying off the bike and receiving a very painful left wrist. Was about 20 m...

I noticed today while riding my Triumph Scrambler on the lanes that the low height and the low centre of gravity made the bike quite easy to manage when compared to my DRZ. But the Triumphs main disadvantage was the weight and fragile pokey out bits. Don't get me wrong the DRZ is a great tool and will go o...
