Good day for a blast

It's been a while since I was on a bike. Felt rough this morning, probably various viruses from the kids, so a few hours on the GS to make me feel better.

At Helmsley there were a few others playing out too.

Over the North Yorkshire Moors. Beautiful. Passed a Motorsport sthou coming back down on the Stokesely / Helmsley tt road, anyone in here?

And the money shot

Brilliant!
Was a lovely day here too but only 2 degrees in the morning, By 1pm I had the suncream on as it had risen to 4 degrees.
Still loads of salt on the roads but there was a few brave souls out on sports bikes today.

It was a tropical 6 or 7 around North Yorkshire today. Warm in the sun having a coffee and a sausage roll at Helmsley. I was a bit lazy about pics. I found a new road and kept planning to stop and take pics as it was stunning, but it was too warm and comfy to bother, lol, GS goodness .

Went on a 250 mile round trip to Oban on the West coast from Leven on the East coast of Scotland for a fish supper. My usual route, reminds me of why I live here.







Apologies to anyone who lives in Lincolnshire, this is an everyday view.:glee:

Aye it was Stuart looking across towards Ardanaiseig. I actually stopped the bike and doubled back for that photo, I have never seen Loch Awe so still it was really like a mirror, it was picture postcard stuff.

MESSAGE TO ANYONE WHO HAS NEVER RIDDEN IN SCOTLAND-COME AND RIDE HERE, BETTER THAN THE CONTINENT. (And we can nearly speak English)
