I have a weekend on my own except the cat. My wife has gone to the eldest daughters, the youngest is scoping out Exeter to move there and the dogs are farmed out. After buying fresh bread for Bacon & egg sandwich I took the winter bike out and rode down to Bournemouth Ducati hoping to get a coffee, nope. Next was Poole to call in at the Sbomb cafe to check its suitability for a group ride and a lunch spot, nbg as they are not doing food at present. Briefly popped into the Trek cycle shop. Next to Christchurch to see a friend at Destination Triumph, he was having lunch. Then I eventually hit the jackpot by calling in at Sammy Millers new cafe. Excellent toastie and good coffee so that’s the ride destination sorted. Back home for a spot of DIY, patching a hole in the living room ceiling where we had a leak. Just deciding on whether to get out quick on the bicycle or just hit the garage turbo…..
Went out with a mate today, he wanted to pop over to the superbike factory, in the old P&H shop. Oh dear. I’ve never seen such a poor display of tatty bikes before in my life. They reckon they sell 300 a month! Had this on the way home, which was rather good….
"I’ve never seen such a poor display of tatty bikes before in my life." has to be true - all those bikes and closest punter is looking at a bird poster.
