A very pleasant Enfield ride this evening. Low sun turning stubble fields golden, hot air balloons hanging low in the sky. And two deer, testing the Enfield's ability to go from ~40MPH to 0MPH in a very short space of time. I think I must have ended up a small number of metres from them, headlight illuminating their speckled coats. Sadly my bikecam is currently refusing to record anything longer than two minutes - that would have made a great Youtube moment.

Instead, you can have some photos, including the windmill at Brill.

Rides like this one are what I enjoy most about motorcycling.

I'm off to Norfolk tomorrow morning - it's my granny's 100th birthday, she's having a marquee and food. Here's hoping the weather's going to be good, though it looks promising.

Sounds great. The weather looked good riding home from work this evening, but I was too tired to think about staying out on the bike. Thursday I took our usual A329/B480 route and 'misjudged' a corner in a non-dangerous but scary manner....my manager is a member of Thames Vale Advanced Motorcyclists so I'm going to ride-out with him to their next meeting and have another assessed ride :-)
