Had an errand to run today. Decided to take the Bird. A little on the freeway, a little on surface streets , a little fast, a little slow. The Bird ran perfectly, accelerated phenomenally, was very comfortable. Got lots of heads turned for a look. the Bird, ate a couple of "american cruisers" that I won't name, and I didn't want to end the ride, and etc etc. Ever had a ride on the Bird like this? I'm guessing you have.

I was out on the Tiger last Saturday.... It was F"!£$?G FREEZING!

-4 Degrees Celcius
(24.8 F for those that don't know)

THEN you have to ADD the chill factor from the wind - I usually say to knock off another 3 to 4 degrees!!!
So you could say it was around - 8 degrees on my chubby cheeks!

But the hot mug of tea did help half way.

Leave the pork pies for now - get the sausage rolls while they're hot!
