First ride 2013

#1 Beitrag von closey » Di Jan 01, 2013 18:22

Seeing as it was the first decent day with a bit of blue sky and the sun putting in an appearance I thought a little ride through Weardale was a good idea. :-D

The stepping stones at Stanhope ford were well and truly under water.

It was a bit cold on the hilltops and my gloves weren't really up to the job, so it was hand warmer time on the engine at one point.

It was worth the effort getting out there though.

Hi Joe,

nice pics!
But, what about heatings? Ok, it's only for old man!

I lost a friend on a trip in January some years ago, suddenly he was 'gone' out of the back. It was dark.
I drove slow (trucks turned over), I stopped on next exit. Waiting, waiting, ....
Suddenly I noticed a Harley: Bernd!
I stopped him at next exit: My hands where so cold!!!!
At this time Dirty don't wear heatings, but I had very good clothes.

Back home at 10 pm I saw: -8°

But don't forget, other the day sunshine all over the sky! Great!!

Cheers - Rolf

Hi Joe,

remember June 2007! It was warm and only some showers! :pfeif:
We all enjoyed it! Especially Uwe with his GS, driving into deep water on the road! :gr:

Cheers - Rolf

Molly is presently at the hospital at Hamburg (Dr Lederclaus) :], but I hope to have her back once the weather will allow some driving here...

@ Joe: Nice pics. *sigh!* I really HAVE to come back to old Spenny...

Hi there,

my G now did it's first longer ride through our beautiful "Niederrhein" landscape this year - at zero degrees and a bright blue sky. Road was brill - only I hate my worn out Lazer-rubbers at these temperatures ...

Best regards
Yogi
