Enjoyed the chat, you are spot on about bikes starting chats when out and about. My Royal Enfield Classic 350 is a magnet for chats from all sorts of folk, even school kids came up and said I like your bike Mr :) Not the weather for that bike right now though.

Just watched this and it’s cheered me up after a snowy day in the midlands , ride safe 🤟

In about 2001 I'd taken my DR125 out to herne bay to visit a mate... and thought it'd be a good idea to put a bigger carb jet in, maybe get it up to 70mph on thay home, pissed a load of petrol all over his driveway and headed home trying to keep up with another mates ford escort. Ran outta petrol on the thanet way and had to call my mum to rescue me with a jerry can...thank god for the trusty nokia 3310, otherwise it'd be long push home back into thanet. Still never hit 70mph, but never run out of petrol since 🤣
