There was loads of them there 'chicken chasers' up at Matlock Bath yesterday, seems like they are acquiring cult status. Good to see many of them with 'L' plates on which means new blood coming in 8-) .

It was one of the C90 club meets. They ended up doing some off road stuff too which looked a laugh.
Their next event is the Southern Softies held down near Bournemouth later in the summer. Hoping to head to that one 🙂

I recently acquired a Husky Svartpilen 401. Once, the right things had been done (Tail tidy, Leo Vince stubby can, bar end mirrors). For Sunday morning shenanigans, this is so much fun.

However, for touring/ long distance, I’ll still prefer the 1290.
KTM 1290 Super Adventure T - Power!
KTM 690 Enduro R - lighter to pick up
Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 - Fun.

Even our dogs are orange.

Only bikers understand why dogs put their heads out of car windows.

Looking good! Couldn’t see clearly, was the water really deep in the middle?

It wasn't to deep but there was a tractor deserted further up the track and couldn't get past it👍
