    Had a day at British Super Bike School today so I will spend most of the weekend aching. Going to try and get over to Cadwell to see Tyke and Wedgie. Also finally got the annex sorted after the last tenants wrecked it and the new tenant moved in today but still a few snagging bits to do so will have to do them as well.

    Will be spending most of my time walking the dog i've got a young Border Collie that I just can't tire out, will try and get a few miles in on my pushbike, i commute 160 miles a week but need to do some climbing work. May squeeze in a blast out on the Blade brothers on Hol at St Austell so may pop down there on Sunday, off to Fowlers in the morning on my 2006 KTM 625 smc to see what they offer me px for a 2014 690 smcr with a stage one mod (which they claim knocks out 84bhp)

    Had a trip out on the Ktm this eve down to Minehead, very busy road with double white lines 90% of the way :mad: but then i turned up through Dunster to Bampton hardly any traffic and lots of twisty bits :D although the road surface down there is absolutely diabolical at the moment, at Bampton I turned back on myself and came back over the top of Exmoor and the Quantocks to home, one of those rides where everything just flowed I even managed to get rid of my Chicken strip on the right hand side of the rear tyre and I demolished a Ducati 1098 on the twisty's which was nice :D

    Great Easter break for me.

    Friday was a visit to the Horse & Jockey in Chorlton; spent the afternoon sat in the Sun drinking far too many pints of a beer called Lawless. Saturday was our annual visit to the garden centre (don't laugh; there is a good reason), where we have a hearty breakfast & my wife buys plants & stuff. Sunday was a family day; we had our parents & children around for dinner. Monday was great; my son & I did a 300 tour of North Wales in nice weather & little traffic considering in was a BH. We took in the Ponderossa, Bala, Barmouth, Betswy Coed, Abergele etc; it was a full day out hence the trip to the garden centre to earn brownie points.
