Staying sane in an insane world

It appears the last few months have led to group insanity throughout the western world, as "leaders" in all western countries struggle to keep a grip on a whole host of issues, middle aged well to do people and groups of idiots and teenagers who should be in school fight causes by vandalising things within the pretext of protest but are at the same time removing freedoms from the bulk of the sensible and generally law abiding public. But this is not a rant, its just a few photos of bikes, normal people (motorcyclists) are too busy enjoying life to worry too much about pent up rage and whilst the world is far from perfect its a damn sight better than going back to the middle ages which is where we seem to be heading. Remember Brando in "The wild ones" "What you protesting about Johhny" " What you got"
Last weekend we took advantage of the fact it seemed to be ok for people to gather to protest to bend the rules and take the slightly longer way to the shops, I cannot recommend the motorcycling lifestyle more highly, people are in the main friendly and welcoming no matter how deep your pockets are or where your from, its a great group to be in, try it and escape the insanity.

Relaxing with a cuppa
I'm not really 20 feet tall
The Strathearn valley
Nature, peace and quiet
Fi about to drone
Loch Tay, peaceful, no problems with social distancing
The Yew tree at Fortingall, possibly a reminder of the Romans colonial past
Peaceful
The Yew tree and a telephone box, reminders of the past
Tea stop again
And so the day ended, a great day running around deserted roads, enjoying nature, does wonders for the mind !

  1. Very nice Gino. Bros out for a wee shakedown, Kat returned home chuffed and insisted I took it for a wee run. So, a wee run and returned home. Kat said she'd have a look under the fork gaiters, "just to check"! You guessed, blown fork seals and the rear monoshock behaves like a pogostick! More angst! SRX mono has now passed it's MoT, so, at present this is the sole legal runner and the weather looks to be deteriorating. As for the numpties etc. I use a pink cloud to escape on!
    Good health, Myreside
