    Oh Happy Day



    What a glorious week of weather up in Moray, The sun is out the sky is blue there's not a cloud to spoil the view [as the song goes] and to this I opened the garage doors and wheeled out the old Transalp after a long winter of extensive overhaul, including new complete brake setup and lots of servicing and changing of worn parts and the fitting off pannier rails and engine bars. And then to the music of the exhaust a little ride along country lanes with the birds singing and rabbits playing chicken across the road off to the MOT station and joy of joy a new ticket, ready for a summer off fun 'issent life grand' well I think so.

    ps I must arrange some pics.

    Happy days. Drizzly at my end I'm afraid.
    Nice to get a ticket on the first go after all that work.

    You Sir, deserve a beer!

    Shame you missed the bestest weather BigD, wot with your bike not being ready till today. Local XRVr's went to Skye on Monday, to take advantage of the weather whilst it lasts.
    Rain this weekend .

    We'll be getting another run set up soon - keep an eye on the Scotland area on the ride-outs thread for details.

    Glad your back on 2 wheels again and smiling.

    TTFN,

    Steve T



    PS - where are the pics already
