I'm the same mate. Out this morning and I was overtaken by many sports bikes but I'm happy doing my speed which is usually a little over the speed limit.

Well I just put another hundred miles on & blew another tank of fuel out my exhaust. 
All tucked up for the night now but I remembered to lube my change whilst it was warm so all ready for another Sunny day tomorrow.

Lubing your change does make it a lot easier to get it out of your pocket.
Today will be a bike day, The weather looks Perfect.
No mate Sorry, Exeter is to far away from me.
Just got in from a ride out & I can say now It's Official I Love my motorbike. 
Feels like my bike now & the only thing I want to tweak now is my rear shock as I think it needs softening a tad but I am going to reset it to factory & go from there for starters.
Note to self - Get suspension key.

Had my first scare today. 
Off out on the B road to Ibstock I dipped into a slow left then dipped into an even slower right & the front wheel went over a pile of stones/rubble & moved about 3 inches which felt like 3 foot. +
They are laying those stones everywhere, The worst kind that they expect You to press into the road for them.
**** that I thought & turned off through the country roads heading up to the A444 for a lap or ten. Got about 3 minutes into the A444 & had talked myself out of the scare when low & behold there's more of the same roadworks with the **** stones piled about an inch deep everywhere.
It's a Conspiracy I tells ya.
Stopped for a bacon cob a smoke & a natter to the cob wagon Dude then headed out of Leicestershire to Warwickshire to find some decent roads, One is the road to Fillongley the B4102 from Nuneaton to Fillongley.

Couldn't resist going back out around 6.30pm, Had a little run around the twistys then used the M69 to blap back home, I kept to a steady 69mph.
