I'll be off to teach some Frenchies some more English swear words this afternoon with my buddy. I don't know what we're going to do once we run out of them. Probably just make some up? Anyway,  we've already told them that once they learn English they can travel anywhere in the world and be understood. Just point and shout! Works fine when confronted by Johnny Foreigners who pretend that they don't understand! 😂😂😂

Passed, mot involved checking lights and asking me if I'm happy with everything else because he knows I maintain my own bike.

First time using this place, family business, they mot everything. Recommended to them by a guy who I fixed his harley brakes for. Told the tester who I was and he said "oh you're the brake guy, did a great job on John's bike, your bike will be fine." Spent half an hour chatting and passed the bike, not many old school places like that left.

True, but I am lucky to have one 3 miles from me and another about 20 miles proper places run by genuine people.  Doesn't hurt that he one 3 miles from me is married to one of my cousins.  👍

The place i go is like that Barry goes through the bike to tell me if anything is wrong not to fail it because he knows i'll sort it straight away. But the new MOT tester he has there who's a young lad goes through everything in fine detail. When i took my Africa Twin there last time he was laying on the floor inspecting the underside of the bike with a torch i said your determined to fail this ain't you. i make sure it's Barry doing the MOT when the other bikes go there.

Just had a therapeutic afternoon, had to take My Shadows bike up to Damerells to be looked at.   I took a route avoiding the A30 as a 125 on a duel carriageway is not much fun.  Anyway bimbled there on B roads sat in the sun for an hour and bimbled back again on a similar route.   Thoroughly enjoyed it, different sort of biking but very enjoyable nonetheless.   Terminal velocity on the CB125F is 63 mph with my fat arse on it  😎 Some serious vibey bollock tingling at that speed 🤣.  Really fun trying to keep momentum up and making sure to hit the bottom of hills in the right gear.   
I did notice that it goes a lot better without a pillion and I know that’s obvious on a 125 but still made quite a difference in the amount of times you have change down.  

Two more sold CB125F’s   I would love to know how many they actually sell in a year.

Took the long way home, 90 miles, swung by a church that a friend is just about to become lead pastor of.
