I agree with Jools, gota be prepared for everything that the highway thows at you and that includes all the numpties, the gravel strewn corners, funny painted (raised) warning lines on the entries to bends, patches of chippings etc, etc. Me, too slow for most rideouts with the boys but enjoying the Ducati ownership experince more and more. Why, it's not just about going flat out; as Rattler and others have stated, that's what tracks are for, for me it's about the clubs and the shared friends and the places we all go. Rgds Rob |
