Falmouth, Helston, Wendron, Redruth and Home.

Stunning weather here, nothing important to do so just went for a bimble that turned out being 5 hours and 110 miles.  
For starters I got one of this mesh things to see it it helped Shadows ever sensitive butt.   It  works apparently .  And yes before anyone mentions it I know it makes my bike look like a Himalayan that has had a Temu parts cannon fired at it But if it stops the moaning I will bear it.  

Got through morning St Austell school run congestion then on to Truro where some bell end in a white A4 fulfilled the stereo type and near rear ended us.    Frightened the fuck out of Shadow who proceeded to give him her whole vocabulary of expletives and gestures when we pulled up beside him at the next lights .   It’s her angry time of the month, the rage she’s demonstrated is quite disturbing.  

A few more miles and I took the wrong turning and rode through Penryn town centre to Falmouth.   Of course we couldn’t ride past Maccies, I thought a McFlurry would calm the beast plus I needed a bladder break.  

 

We rode onto Falmouth Station car park (free to bikes) then walked down to events square for a look at the river.   

At this point Shadow was raging because we never fitted the giant top box for our helmets and jackets as we had to carry them. Actually I will next time I thought it was a good idea if we are going to mooch about when it’s hot.   
 

Having done Falmouth we headed further west to Helston as Shadow has never been there and I haven’t for years.   More free parking 

Then we walked into Helston for a Costa 

Stunning weather but my head was glistening according to my company

Suitably fed and watered we headed off to Wendron.  An absolutely stunning village on the way to Redruth.   
Managed to get out of Dead Rough, as it’s known down here, unscathed and stopped in Scorrier for some fuel, CBF averaging 58mpg. Then out onto the new A30 and blast back to Innes Downs and home through the clay country.   Stunning ride with great company, much as I moan about Shadow we get on really well and laugh a lot.   The CBF is running like a Honda, a very comfortable pleasant way to travel.   Will even pick up its skirts and blast along with a few revs, best £1100 I have ever spent.   

Now chilling, while Shadow is off down the beach with her mate, having worn me out for the day.

I wish I knew it better.  Been down there on the piss a few times and I did have a girlfriend that moved there many years ago but I haven't been there for probably 30 years excepting today.    Hayle I know a little better.
