New toys ...

So that's my new bike. Suzuki DL1000 V-Strom. Unfortunately that's also the garage …

It was a long ride back from the shop, considering I've been off 2 wheels for some time now, but well worth it. She just purrs at 70, and I felt very comfortable all the way. My back's a bit sore, as is my wrist, but I'm putting that down to an unfamiliarity of the riding position and just having been off the road for a while. I'm hoping it'll sort itself all out.

Got in an hour today, so just have to keep it up a while!
