Winston 66      Leaving Home
Well I was going to do it but have had to have a change of plans.
Even though the trailer build is finished and the ST has been completly serviced including a new rear tyre , windscreen , tip over bars etc, etc,
 The dreaded winter onset of the major cold and associated general bed ridden incapacity has ment this last week being locked indoors and being confined to the cot and being fed the mandatory diet of the chicken soup, followed up with the hot toddy of Port with Lemonade and honey, That in my opinion almost makes up for being indisposed.
Anyway I have decided not to set of on an extended holiday as planned, I honestly do not feel that I am well enough to do it so I am going to stay home and have a holiday here.
 I guess that I can go for a nice long ride if I feel like it any time in the future.
Cheers to all

Mate, I don't blame you at all. I had the flu some weeks ago and was having trouble walking let alone riding, so I know how you feel. Stay indoors, stay warm and keep slurping the hot toddy's; they do nothing to cure you ailments, but after a couple you really don't care if you're sick or not.

Cheers

Winston66     :dred11 :thumbsup :think1

A training run,
 Does that mean that I will have to get a new Bra as well.
Seriously though I am interested even though I would have to make it a two or three day round trip.
 Maybe a good opportunity to try out the trailer and all the other associated stuff.
 Will put it on my to do list.
 Thanks
