After spending at least half the weekend decorating (a nice bluish grey now that you ask) I wanted to take advantage of the summer solstice and the sun yesterday afternoon, so I took the bike and pointed it East. I wanted to grab a cup of tea at Loomies, but with no specific timescale holding me back and nowhere specific to be afterwards, I was able to time a fairly relaxed approach.
Following the obligatory dose of tea and sausage sarnie, I headed back out and just enjoyed the ride, burning off two tanks of petrol in the process. I stopped for about an hour to grab some food and then turned for home and for the first time in six months I actually ended up riding in the dark, which was fine really as by this time, the roads were so quiet and I was able to make swift progress along some wide trunk roads.
It's days like this, when you can just pull on the helmet, head off and forget about things for a bit, which make me love two wheels so much.
