Gave Xena a wash and polish which hasn't been done for months and months, cleaned and lubed the chain also not done for a while, bike night tonight so wanted her looking more presentable :lol:

She is also due a service shortly, racked up 5100 miles so far and will be doing a few more this week with some more club rideouts coming up, got one in Lincolnshire on Wednesday and another to the Forest of Bowland on Sunday, busy busy busy :thumb:

I had my rear brake hose burst on my r1100rs last week so I've changed the lot for braided lines today.

 

Just got to fit all the fairing back on.

Ah , the Forest of Bowland .  I kind of " Discovered " that on paper , so to speak , by just looking at a map and trying to work out a scenic route to Scotland . It looks like a sort of enclave where no major roads have ever been built . I'd be interested in any more first hand information if you can provide it .  .

If I could add a little info for you. Depending where you are approaching the trough from, and where you want to head too, a good road starts just off the A59 at Ribchester Rd and through Ribchester then on to Longridge, pick up Longridge Rd and head for Dunsop Bridge (there is a cafe) or head a little further along that route to sykes and you will come across a brew wagon in a gravel lay-by just by the brook. Continue to follow signs for Quernmore and you will find Jubilee Tower, great views over Lancaster and Morecombe bay and the lakes. From there you could then head for Caton - Kirby Lonsdale (brew stop) then take your pick which way you want to head north.

I have no idea which way we are going as it's a group ride out so a case of follow my leader, one thing i will be doing though is videoing the ride, might take some time to edit it and get uploaded though but will do it asap :thumb:

My Doohan I Tango E Scooter came with a Red Bull sticker on the wind deflector, so I scraped it off. It was stuck like S**t to a blanket.
