Just bought the bike with original tyres on, 3 yrs old done 1300 miles! Bike fine, but tyres have hardened, not giving me a good feel at all
Had Diablo's on the other R1 which suited it and me fine '>
I usually get 6,000 miles from rear and 12,000 from front, but rear doesn't usually last as long as six months

Know that well eh Christine. New rear tyre every 8 - 10 weeks, makes for blooming expensive biking, only made up for financially by getting twice the MPG I had when doing same journey by car. Oh and half the journey time too.

Don't forget the grin factor too! '>
Ended up in Dungeness,as the tea rooms at Singleton shut. Very wet and wild there going across Romney Marsh, very hard to resist the urge to take everyone up the Military Road
Now the sun is out, home to catch up on some chores, like cutting grass, which is threatening to take over

I didn't think you were like that Christine, Still I suppose you learn something new every day    '>

[pieman]

woohooooo, muchos fun.
Started off a little damp, but not raining! Soon lightened up, with some fantastic roads. Then got very warm and sunny - but a little windy!! I'm off next weekend too, I'll have a think about another route, maybe a last trip to Rye? or the New Forest for a look at the ponies?

[Burger]

Bloomin Great day out Thanks to Si and Becs for a good route.

Becs, very very good pace I had great fun.

Fav quote of the day, "Nar, we go steady as well"! '>

Fav event, Stopping in front of that guy at the Ace!

[pieman]

Surprise of the day - Rizla managing to keep up round the bends!
Other surprise of the day - crap fuel range of Riz's bike '>

[STEM-VFR]

Great ride just sorry I couldn't stay all day. Nice roads at a good pace well done Becs and Si. Good to show them our part of the country for a change.

[skybaby]

Had fun today, glad you enjoyed it Rich. As you know I was a bit nervous about leading, as not used to it. Well done everyone for taking the risk with the weather it was well worth it.

[Crashappy_chris]

Splendid day out, great when it had all dried out. Pity about the wind, must have been the baked beans for lunch.

THX all. '>
