New Bike For Markymark - Onanist - 11-01-2010

<!--quoteo(post=146701:date=Sun 10th Jan 2010, 08:15 PM:name=MarkyMark)-->QUOTE(MarkyMark @ Sun 10th Jan 2010, 08:15 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->Goerge White would not give me it.

They have so much compact ice around there that they will not give anybody a bike. They did offer to deliver free of charge during the week - but I will probably be at work - so I said I would will wait till I can ride it home.

I did try to convince them that I could push it accross the grass to the main road.

Anyway - I.m praying for a thaw. Hope to try again next Saturday.

Did ask if I could come and look at it in the show-room - but it was still in the warehouse. - Very grumpy.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Oh that's got to feel harsh, like having all your Christmas pressies taken away.
Anyway fingers crossed for a thaw this week and roll on Saturday [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/clapping.gif[/img]

Either that or he was so impressed with it, that he's gone off on his first adventure ride.

Well I collected my Tenere at 11:00 on Sat 16th and had a quick whizz round Swindon, Calne, Devizes, Cirencester, Cardiff and Glocester.

Love it.

Everything I need and I have kept it under 4000 revs.

Congrats Mark, now about those piccies [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]

Nice one. Be interested in hearing the long term ride report too.

New Bike For Markymark - MarkyMark - 19-01-2010

So far so good

Too dark in the evenings to get piccies - and will probably have to get 600 mile service on Saturday.

Will attempt to post piccies on Sunday

oh a sort trip, just to see how it goes [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

My definition of a comfy seat:

You can sit on it for a tank full of petrol - so I had to do a 200 mile stint to find that out. Had to work in Birmingham on Monday so rode the Tenere.

Pleased - love it in rush-hour town traffic.

Nice, like the contrasting colour to the TDM a kind of rhubarb and custard combination [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]
