2021 Roundup

 Well what a year that was, another year of lockdown and doom mongering from the scumbag politicians, aye all of them who can't see reality because ALL of them have their noses in the trough and its us poor peasants that's supplying their food. Lockdowns and daft rules which are continuing up until today, they don't seem keen on relinquishing control. Just the other day that baldy wee eejit fae the controlling cooncil in Embra said that Omicron was a catastrophe for all of society, last year nobody had a jag, we were told once you've all been jagged it'll be fine, then once you've all had two it'll be fine, then.... now in the space (for me) of 9 months I've had three and its still a complete mess. 

But that's enough of the depressing stuff, despite the ruling classes best effort we still had a great year on the bikes (not a full as we would have liked) we visited Europe, six countries (not including England) and we never caught the plague, we had loads of runs in Scotland and England in mixed weather, brilliant hot sunshine and pishing rain but it was braw, when your on the bike the worlds issues disappear (except when you stop for petrol and you find oot a mortgage is required) And we were lucky enough to use a fair selection of bikes to get out on.

It has been great to spend time with old friends and make some new ones, most of all its just been great being a small part of the motorcycling community. I hope you all have a great 2022 and manage to fulfill some of your dreams and aspirations and stay healthy.

I'll leave you for 2021 with a small selection of photos from this year, Slainte!

  3. Thank you for the tootling in your passing and as Eric has said "Lang micht yir lum reek".
    Out yesterday for a canter on the Duke and nearly taken out by a Far Eastern tourist in a Mercedes people carrier. They were on the wrong side of the carriageway as I crested the brow of a rise in the road! Passengers and driver were ashen faced! I was in the gutter and virtually stopped when the wheel was finally turned to take avoiding action! Go canny and get the miles under those wheels. Good health, Myreside

    2. All over in a "flash" and with no video, no "proof"! So, took a deep breath and enjoyed the moment, as the old bird came on the cam and cantered along. Enjoyed my tea that wee bit more! ;¬) Cheers, Myreside
