They say a change is a good as a rest and today it was all about change for Derek. Then it was third time lucky for a spot of lunch…

Morning Nick. Nice ride in horrible weather, at least it cleared for your ride home. It always annoys me when dealers donโt fill the tank for customers, itโs not as though they arenโt making enough money from the sale ๐คฌ. Cheers
Nice to have good friend's. We have the same thing here with road work and businesses closing. Sad thing is an owner of a business might know about future road work and attempt to sell his buisness prior to work being done and the new owner is the one that goes bankrupt. Crazy that people do yhat to others. Great ride today for a great guy picking up his new bike. ๐
Morning Nick ๐ you to put those flipping yellow back breakers in I thought that they would never end great day wasn't it ๐ a four cafe tour marvellous ๐๐
Good morning Nick thank you for coming along with me to pick the new bike up I really appreciated that with James as well and to top that a lovely breakfast in the Bolton abbey tea rooms. When I left I was looking for the quickest route home slipped my mind about the workmen going straight 6pm and here we come grand canyon should be done within two weeks now fingers crossed. Very nice company you and James are my treat nice time thank you Nick ๐๏ธ๐
Throughly enjoyed watching this. Thanks Nick. When is this rain gonna do one, and go. Nice bike Derek got. He will put his own mark, on that for sure. Was up Lochcarron and Ullapool visiting, live music, great stuff, on the Sunday, it was gorgeous, lots of bikes out. Monday was back to normality ๐ข. Best wishes.
Thanks for the video. I travel the A59 regularly by bike and car. Checked yesterday and apparently itโs going to be closed at Kex Gill until June at the earliest๐ณ. I guess you got back through Ilkley fairly painlessly on the 350. But by car itโs a nightmare.๐ฑ Now the weatherโs starting to pick up (ish), Iโve got an even better excuse to ditch the car and use my 350 Classic instead. Every cloud etc etc๐คฃ๐๐

Nice machine. Shame that the day ended badly for him.
ey now, I'd imagine that old BSA with those clip-ons would do wonders for your back ๐
Are you thinking of doing The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride this year?
Really enjoyed that Nick, glad you commented on the route you take to the Dales as I get lost lol. I come in from a different route
'Look after yourselves and look after the people around you' that's much โค love
Enjoyed the video. I've been going to Route 59 for years and never thought to call in at the Abbey tea rooms, breakfast looked good!
Nice to have options when out and about.
