Just come back from my ride out. Bit cold and slippery but roads were quiet around Kent. Midlands a bit far for me but enjoy your ride!

Im getting ready to go out on my first proper ride on my new Tiger. Ive had her for about 3-4 weeks now and only done 250 miles i blame it on poo weather and falling off her

It was a very cold ride today!
Almost splattered myself over the road, uploading the video now.
Be careful!!

Bakes how did you fall off the tiger?

Went out to get petrol and ended up taking a 2 hour long detour home (stopped in my friends too) roads were really sketchy with all the rain/gravel/mud on the roads but was fun to be out again even if it was cooold!

It was a lapse of concentration and it almost bit me. Why do you think i posted it? To show off or as a reminder to always keep your mind on the job at hand?

Your mighty high up there on your riding god high horse.

Fair do's to you for posting it, we have all had moments like that or similar at least i know i have.

When stuff like that happens to me for ages after im still shaking my head, and calling myself an idiot, but lapses in concentration do happen to everyone, no one is perfect.
