PG tips is a fine tea, I get my Squadron Leader pipe tobacco from a friend in Yorkshire, I've a fine Peterson pipe and Jameson is always close at hand.

Not only am I a Police Chief, but, to make matters worse the name's O'ROURKE and that's Irish enough.

Practice practice so you can get your full license. Ride safe watch for the idiots!!

Well back out for a spin today, I getting curious as to what mileage my bike does, when I switch to reserve, I'll zero it.
but I've almost done a 100miles and the tank still has loads in it, maybe the bottom part has less volume and goes down quicker than the top? :??:
I plan to run it a good bit before I do a long trip, think the rear brake needs adjustment anyway, so I'll have to look at that, there is loads of play and it seems fairly weak.
I'll get around to taking a picture of the bike and the saddlebags, my girlfriend got them for along with some spacer bars for each side for Xmas and they are quite big at about 34 litres total, I probably would have went for smaller, but I used them today and half filled them.
Next time I pack the balaclava, better to be looking at it than for it as there was a cold gale blowing down my neck, least it was dry though.
