Just ridden the 7 miles from Midhurst to Petworth on the A272, with the sun riding on my left sholder. Not another vehicle put in an appearance for the whole trip - something I've never experienced before. Sweeping through Cowdry Park using all the road has to be my best riding moments this year - if you know the road you'll know what I mean :o

My mother said there would be days like this .... :sing:

Snowdonia roads & blue sky at 6a.m. - sublime - just watch out for the rabbits, pheasants & sheep - not a car or cop in sight.

Isle of Man TT course.The Gooseneck to Creg ny Ba.(approx 13 miles)
Me and two Gixxers the first in the queue to get on the road after the cops had cleared up an accident.
The Suzooks kept with me for the first five or six miles and then I was on my own.Knee down at the Bungalow in front of the cops,plus overtaking a patrol car at over 120mph were just the icing on the cake.:D:D:D

I think I've only been along there with no traffic twice in 10 years.
And I think it was evening as well.
