Nice 2 meet u 2! Was a good spin and the weather just made the spin better!

Roll on next Sunday!!!!

That was coldest day on the bike in a long time, even with the thermals on I was freezing. Think once the cold gets into the body it's hard to shake off.

But on the plus side it was a great day on the bike, discovered a few nice new roads and managed to dodge the showers.

Great to put names to faces and hope to get out with you lads again soon.

After Hollywood we head straight towards hacketstown but took the sharp right instead and on into Balitore (I think thats it anyway) great fast road one or two turns deffo catch you out on that stretch. On to the Athy roadabout and right again towards Nurny and into Monasterevin for a cup o tae in Lookbehindyou's house. Then out again into Kilcullen and the Curragh back down into Naas and then Summerhill and Dunboyne and home!

Fair few miles covered today.

Why is there a gap at the top of the visor??

well, theres a rubber seal all the way around, but hail was still hammering though it

I know the hail showers where pretty heavy the weekend and fair play for being out in them. But I wouldn't be happy if my lid was letting hail or rain in between the seal.

What typed of lid have you?

Btw did you pick up any bargains in crossons?

Wossack

ah only a small bit - slight exaggeration for dramatic effect :P

mate was buying new boots, and got a good price on em. I was along for the ride, half thinking of getting a new lid, but nothing took my fancy unfort. Prob should have worked out my size in Shoei lids in retrospect
