Go Big and Ride Small

[Godspeed]

My lovely cousin unfortunately separated from her husband recently and asked if she could form a ‘bubble’ with myself and my wife. Very happy to, she’s the only decent one in my family
Anyway, I digress....
She lives down in Hastings so on Sunday I loaded up the Innova, set the satnav to ‘plan a thrill’ (flippin love that feature) and went down to spend a couple of days with her and the kids.
Managed to cover 360 miles in two days, fully loaded with camping gear. This Innova really can haul a good bit of weight and still returns 150mpg!!!

Run out in the sun today, lower Heyford meet up and through Chipping Norton and Stow on the Wold to Bourton on the water, socially distant lunch by the river. Ride home alone so took in a trail on the way home.

Sounds like a jolly spiffing day!

Took advantage of the glorious weather this afternoon here in bonnie Scotland. Took the sporting Innova out a fifty mile run.
My route was;
Bridge Of Allen - David Stirling Memorial - Doune - Deanston - Thornhill - Stirling and home... Here's a few photo's;

Ok I've only had ownership of the wee Honda Innova 125cc for six months now and can honestly tell you the enjoyment factor is fantastic even compared to my 2008 V-Strom DL1000 large/bulky Adventure motorcycle......which I've been neglecting a bit recently as I'm loving the simplistic values of a Scooter......maybe it's an age thing as I fast approach sixty years of age.

I'm sure it won't happen this year but maybe in the future I would love to pick up a clean/used Honda Silverwing 600cc Maxi-Scooter, seems sensible as it's the simple Twist N' Go factor, a 15 litre fuel tank capacity, a healthy 49bhp power output, huge storage under seat.

My views on motorcycles have changed since buying the Honda Innova in January, even though the Innova has a small nine brake horse power it's magical what it does......for me. Every ride is so enjoyable.
