went out to bristol today 8-)
the ride there was good.........dryish roads and little traffic meant i could play a bit. due to not riding much, i was still a bit rusty and ham fisted so giving it the big licks out of roundabouts got me some unexpected mono action......which was nice
the ride back however wasn't so good. by the time i got on the bike to come back home it was dark, and i only had a dark visor with me. so it was a visor up jobby all the way back. must of lost about 5 litres of water through tears.
as it was a bit nippy, i decided to cut across salisbury plain for a bit of short cut. but then it started to rain which didn't help things, but then......as i was heading towards a sweeping left hander my headlights decided to cut out.
all i could see was darkness!!
i had a fair idea of where the corner was going as i've been along the road a few times so all i could do was brake as much as i could and pull in.
funnily enough, when i started indicating left, my headlights came back on.
this happened again further on, so i just did the indicator trick and it was sorted again. :-/
so apart from all that...........was a good ride ;D
