My Keeper

After the recent monsoons a decent day so took my little'un out for a bit of sun.

Lucky man! Not just because of the bike, but the scenery too! Lovely shot (are you sure you didn't just scan it from an old brochure? It looks very professional!).

Excellent shot - a man with talent AND a Monster!

Nice pic boris, really envious of the blue skies, not spotted that in these parts for a good while !

Jez900ie · 13-08-2019, 07:57 PM

Great weather, great place, great pic, brilliant bike!

Mr Gazza · 13-08-2019, 08:47 PM

Very nice Boris.... A 2002 M750ie if I'm not mistaken?

Edit - Just spotted lack of oil cooler so probably 620ie?

Even got your gaff in the background too. No wheelie bins though?

Vince - The place is Brodie Castle, it's about 4 miles from my house. I was quite pleased with the shot but did't notice the glare on the tank.

Gary - It's a 2002 620Sie, virtually standard apart from levers, mirrors and Twin Fiamms!

Not always blue skies, this was my first outing of the year taken on 1st January. It was a tad cool (apart from right leg) but just had to log it..

Luddite · 14-08-2019, 10:45 AM

I like that one! (Must be the subject matter

) The moody atmosphere and bare trees complement the mean black Evo perfectly.

boris · 14-08-2019, 09:49 PM

Thanks Vince, and everyone else for the positive comments. I'm just back in from work and saturated, met back to normal. Thankfully on the Canondale tonight so not bothered..

Moco1961 -I have a vintage SM700, my hack for cycling and leaving at the train station. I've a lot more free time now so thinking of treating myself to a 2020 Cujo 3. There's some great trails up here, the forests and tracks start about 200 meters from my house..
