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.

Come on Markymark don't leave us in suspenders..

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.

[Onanist]

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

[Guest]

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

[MarkyMark]

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]

[MarkyMark]

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.
