    You're a better man than me I would rather have my eyes burnt out with a hot poker than have to sit through an Olly murs gig!

    Raining is Gosport.............. Anyone fancy meeting later (Loomis/Bury Hill), weather is supposed to clear up early afternoon.....

    Just didn't fancy arriving wet and cold with a filthy bike, I was up at six, but still raining here.

    I'm up for something tomorrow, keep updating us when and where. I'm in Gosport and it's still raining, so think I made the right decision.

    It was probably the wettest conditions I've ever been out in, I'm soaked through to my pants!

    First timeout on those Michelin PR4's, and they are simply the best tyre I have ridden in the wet, they are amazing and inspire such confidence even with the sitting water today. They make things feel just right, and the ride was still fun, albeit a bit scary trying to see through the visor and the road spray.

    I was genuinely impressed at the turnout of supercars though, there was literally every car you could think of, and even multiples if some very rare machinery. I was the only bike on the track though, looked very lonely stuck out on its own.

    A few of my personal favourites, but rubbish quality from the phone in the wet, and then the old iphone wouldn't work because my hands were just too wet.

    Enjoy your Bank Holidays peeps and look on the bright side...We all have clean bikes to ride when the sun comes out now!
