OK, I don't mind riding in the rain but my preference is not a whole day of wet weather riding unless I really have to be somewhere or on something with knobbly tyres so Sunday's run to the Cotwolds and back with my local IAM (aka GS owners club) is now off for me. Question is, do I fire up the NC for some country lane ambling or spend the day in the garage wrestling with the new wiring loom for the Enfield (brand new, all the way from India for thirty quid including P&P so bound to be an exact replica!!) and wrestling the naff, now permanently armed alarm of the Gixer?

I'm leaning towards a day of repairs and fixing, the thought of tinkering in the garage supplied with never ending mugs of tea and home made cake, mmmmmm .........
