    My office overlooks the A350 near the Co-Op in Westbury and it's amazing how a couple of hours sun brings out the bikes.
    There's been a slow & steady stream, not dozens, but every 10/15 minutes, which is more than over the last few months.

    It gives you that little tingle of excitement of the thoughts of hot tarmac and the sun on your back, ride-outs with good friends, track days with good friends and lots of summer fun :-)

    I propose that all Wiltshire Bikers members emigrate en masse to Southern Spain ! I'll start a list :-)

    I was one of those who rode past your office earlier - about 10 minutes after you posted Was going to stop and pop in but I was supposed to be working so decided I'd better get back home to the laptop. Loads of bikes out today, I only had a short blast but great to be back on 2 wheels after a 6 month (!) absense

    Ye Gerry I noticed a lot more bikes out on my way home from Bath. Was nice at work yesterday and I thought I'd go for a blat today and it's p**sing it down. Bikers should be allowed to choose their days off. Lol. March tomorrow though. Bring it on.
