So we started doing the Cat and Fiddle, Devil's Bridge and Matlock runs, until another mate dropped his 'Blade on the Cat, broke 5 ribs and punctured a lung.

Luckily, I've never had a major spill, but I felt it was just a matter of time I suppose.

The other snag I have is that from where I live, it's a fair old journey on boring roads to get to any decent biker country in pretty much every direction.

So I should move house, forget about the other stuff and bite the bullet, I suppose.
Exactly, buy yourself a tourer or CBR1000 style maybe

not very abt but...you only live once
