I wanna ride!

Where shall I go tonight? West (Bridgnorth)... South (Arrow/Alcester)... or East (Sheepy Magna)??

So little time, so many roads :) :)

I want to go out as well, but am limited to one short trip until I can get paid again. Was supposed to be out tonight, but no chums are going to the meet tonight. Apparently they will be out on Wednesday so will have to wait till then.

Was going to try and make Mondays my bike day this year (set my work hours for Tues-Sat) and get out and do a few hundred miles each Monday. That was when I thought I'd be working five days a week rather than five days a month :smt009

I try to go out a couple of times a week... but since its "summer" and the nights are still relatively light try and do more than that :)

What helps of course is living 5mins from work, working generally 9-5pm and having a considerate missus lol

I reckon Bridgnorth :)

Hmmm .... the mrs is away for a few days at the beginning of next week .... maybe i can get out to play too .....

The 3 miles each way to and from work is getting a bit boring - haven't been further for months .....

Harborne in Brum...

...ended up going Bridgnorth and back on A442 to Kiddy... great end to that road, bet its seen its fair share of casualites though.

Tonight its down to Arrow/Alcester and then along A44 to Leominster... love that stretch of A44.
