A home run west on the A47 of 85 miles into direct sunlight last night, and it ran as sweet as sweet can be. Happy boy

Kids are not just for Christmas but I rarely eat a full one. K's on the other hand last much longer than kids.
There's nothing wrong with acting the kid. As I said to my 88 year old Dad the other day...."One of us would want to start acting our age before the kids tell us to calm down again"!
Lets have some pics. We like pics!

Welcome aboard DLBass
We all know how you feel mate and its a great feeling too.
At the time I bought mine, I procrastinated a little and when I finnally phoned the seller he was overseas and I had to wait 3 weeks till he returned. I was literally on his doorstep when he and his wife got back from the airport. He couldn't stop smiling because he knew how excited and eager I was.
That evening on my way home I rode right past my turn-off at the last minute and just kept going. It was a fine evening indeed.
Cheers

Mmmmm some nice roads now up by Oakham....Rutland Water, Rushton...............Grantham. you are spoiled and I can see that K out with a few more.
That K needs to come over to Ireland on the ferry on 19th September [in the company of Paul Lipscome and Becky and hopefully Snod Blatter] and a trip up to Northern Ireland for some nice roads! Needless to say your route to Holyhead is a great one, if you go through Wales, either take motorway over to Shrewsbury, Llangollen, Betys-y -coed, Bethesda, Bangor, Holyhead or pick up cross country to Llangollen or Oswestry. Those are nice roads for a K.......
