what are you looking forward to?
 
starting to hit the cold depths of winter when bike riding for many of us is a distant dream....

<Lily awaits the onslaught from the AWB, but doesn't care as she is nice and warm>

so what are you looking forward to over the coming months?

Do you have the long distance radar for spring and bike riding, maybe a trip to warmer places for biking/other.

For me, its counting down the days until I land in Vancouver and head to the sunny slopes of Whistler.. I just can't wait and check the webcam every day :sing:

You??

Not much.

Put both bikes to bed for the winter at the weekend so won't be seeing them again till spring.

Ordered a new Mini for the girlfriend but that doesn't arrive till March either.

Boring, boring winter

Getting my bike back on the road so that I can ride through the winter with my mates.

It might seem stoopid to some, but there's a few of us in the BHC region that ride regularly in winter. In fact, some of the best rides have been when it's a crisp and clear day in January or something.

Fewer cars packed with sightseers, no caravans, no bugs to splatter your visor to nil visibility in ten miles and the chance to hone your riding skills to smoothness when the grip is less than plentiful.

Oh, and a pie and pint in a nice warm pub tastes brilliant when you've got a little chilly

off to Beijing tomorrow and whilst there am going to buy some trick, yet tons cheaper, bits for my race suzuki!!

Also, a young lad we look after is racing next yr in the spanish supercup and BSB on a GP125, he's only 13 and was offered a ride for Red Bull Rookies but turned it down to go their own way.
Very promising lad.....next Rossi!! :roll:

I'm looking forward to finishing up at work in 2.5 weeks then heading to Spain for 25 days.

:D :D

And then coming back to finish(read start) setting up my garage properly and prepping the 996 for next years track activities. And maybe sorting out a bike for Desmo Due.

I'm not looking forward to having to find work again, I couldn't be ar$ed really .....
