@Valheru @SpeedStar @eedly I think this thread needed a content warning for us GS owners.
I'm no fan of Sunak but if these woke councils aren't stopped then it's only a matter of time before they start suggesting that speed limits apply to motorbikes as well, and that will be the end of civilisation as we know it.
@paul_edwin Looks like very clean water. Is it possible your bike has a water filtration system as one of its toys?

@spielmannspiel Ha, without a doubt my most popular tweet ever. Nice to see it’s still going.
@mhairihunter I can see Boris backing that... so long as you promise him you'll build a bridge.
Two months after getting my BMW, today I rode my old ZX-6R for the final time, taking it to its new owner.
I was worried that riding it again I’d think that the BM was a mistake and want to go back to in-line 4s.
Needn’t have worried. I’ve loved all three of my ZX-6Rs, and the tens of thousands of miles I’ve done on them, but perched atop that tiny thing, my knees round my ears, I’m happy that the time was right for a change. And grateful, after 28 years of riding, to have become an old rider.

Nice to get out around Kielder Forest without having to use pedal power, for a change. First time taking the BMW off road. I know, it's hardly the Dakar, but everybody's got to start somewhere, right?

The locals were friendly when we stopped for coffee, too. 🐔

@Glencoe @paul_edwin I'd have thought on a nice weekend like this you could stroll down the A82 with a pocketful of spanners and help yourself to the wheels of whoever's gone for a countryside lie-down.
Me and @paul_edwin have been out taking big bikes on shitty roads. We both stayed sunny-side up, I’ve stopped crying now, and my bike trousers will be good as new after a dry-clean.
