One of my best weekends in months.

Friday I saw a GP for an ongoing back issue that has been getting worse.

He will be refering me for a spinal MRI.

Saturday I did all my yard and housework as I have been a bit distracted recently.

In the afternoon I took the bike out and rode over to Craig’s place to go ride with him and his wife.
Lorraine is a new rider with under 300km on her tacho so far.

Her Honda Grom looks toy like next to the GS.



Craig’s 250 commuter so that he can guide her at a sensible pace.

Like me, he has ridden bikes since about age 10. (I started at 13 and never stopped)



I brought up the rear most of the day.

Lorraine is a very confident rider as she has driven all her life, and understands road craft intuitively





After coffee and cake we split and I headed home via Maidstone and Woodsie place.

At the end of the day I did 185 miles for the day.

Woodsie noticed that my rear drive was weeping oil, so a rebuild is on the cards.

Sunday Bootfair scores included this sign used on out of service trains and some old piece of equipment, still to be investigated.



Some collectors coins and a mini tankard.

Tankard May be headed to Winfield, Kansas.





Had a lady friend over for a BBQ yesterday, minus her dog, Wyzz as my cats would not be impressed.

Took her for a walk up to the farm to show off.......


Saw this Poppy........




In other news, mate Martin has started back on his truck.

Progress from this pic I took last weekend now includes loadbed and fenders fitted back.
