My DR250, Frank, was in need of an MOT so we took a little jaunt to the local bike shop where he passed the test with flying colours. After 3 days of heavy rain, the sun had come out the play so I decided to take a little diversion before going home.
I know of a little by-way not far from Squires cafe but during my last visit, it was filled with cow poo and it wasn't a pleasant ride. But I thought it'd make a nice photo for my last ride out with Frank.
The trail was quite nice, a nice firm base and very pretty.
But then the puddles got bigger & a dog walker said they got deep too. So I turned around not wishing to get Frank overly dirty as he's for sale.
Back on a lovely single track
And the pretty twisty way home

Re: Frank's last day out
You should ride that one to NZ Elle. Too nice to let go.
Stay posted when you get there & spread the ABR forum word amongst the local bikers.
Good luck with your new life.
Have fun with your familly.

Lightness is everything.
Lightness with Grunt is a Scratcher!

Good luck with the new life. I had the chance to live in NZ when I was 19. I wimped out and still regret it 39 years later.
