    First ride of 2013

    Had my first ride of 2013 today. Went for MOT. Weather was sunny but still snow at the side of the road. Feck me have I missed riding. This is the latest I have ever had to wait for the snow to melt and it is still freezing. Road tax Friday and Loch Lomond on Saturday. If only it was a bit warmer.
