We can't wait till all this salt disappears from the roads. We'll be out round Durham and up the Dales on our bikes. Maybe a rally or two. Hopefully we'll be bumping into fellow fabbers on our travels

Been to wet lands once. Took our own coffee so can't comment on how good or not it is from the van, not sure how you think it's crap if you haven't been though. It was good craic the night we went and a good mix of biker folk, in no way is it full of power rangers speeding about. You park up, grab a coffee n sandwich and have great chat. Much like any other bike night. It was busy and that was a Wednesday night we went.

Great ride down to Whitby on Saturday. The place was packed with Pirates, apparently it was a Pirate festival weekend. Great few hours spent before our ride back home. Couldn't have asked for better weather. Parked up outside whistle stop cafe amongst all the other bikes and biker folk, how many were fab folk we'll never know

I do all my bike servicing myself. As I bought a new tiger 900GT a year ago, triumph did the 1000 mile 1st service a month later, the service light is due to come on. So, I have bought a tool to reset the service light from Healtech, MM T02. If anyone needs their light switched off and the tool is compatible, check their website, I could be the man to help you out

This is an early mk1 bandit ,I’d say this is more due to carbs not being set properly than the cold . But once she’s going it’s a dream to smash about on . Took a while to get the tyre warm today though
