Cupid Stunt Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Lots of cracking pics, I wish I still had dirt bike adventure bones I miss ploughing through deep puddles and rivers, jumping off every hill and bump I can find and getting home too exhausted to stand up straight 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saul Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 Just popped out for an hour to blow away the cobwebs. Down to Fishy Gizzard (Mevagissey) then back to Pentewan and home. I spend a lot of time in Meva as that is where my choir is. I am sort of grudgingly accepted down there because of it but Tis a bit of a rough old fishing port really. Looks lovely but the pubs can be a bit fighty. Not so much in the summer as the Holibobs fill the place. Lots of Holiday Parks up through the Pentewan Valley.

It's just so easy to live with, I think that is the key. No hassle getting out on it, just grab your stuff and go. Light and easy to ride, cheap to run and fast enough for 90% of occasions. I am a convert and it is something I would never have even considered 6 months ago. I have come to the conclusion that I want a bike to ride not be a trophy. In that vein I am going out with my mate tomorrow who has a red CB, he is thinking of buying another Indian (FTR whatever that is) to go with his Scout and a Benelli 502C to use everyday to keep his CB nice. I don't get the mentality myself, he is a bike collector rather than a rider in my opinion. He has covered a total of 25 miles on two wheels since last September. I have told him what I think so I am not bitching behind his back but I just don't get it, thousands of pounds for ornaments and bragging rights. . Oh and he has a Van Van he won't ride because the tyres cost to much. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really Pete I never once picked up on your new found Honda fandom or inability to grasp other types of bike enjoyment, you’ve always been so embracing of all forms of bikes, riding and bike ownership, you need to be less subtle to get your message across 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
