Laid it on its side non to gently after being rear ended at some temporary traffic lights. Near side damage.

Rode home after a good check over, then spent an hour on the phone to insurance.

Three vehicles involved so has to go through insurance.

 

Oh man. That's weeks down the drain on the phone and filling out forms. All to get yourself some higher premiums. That truly sucks. :(

Hopefully all done on the phone.

I stopped, pickup behind stopped but the lorry behind did not. They were company vehicles as well so has to go through insurance.

Fettled the chain. It really is abused under that fulsome cover.

Ride to the Cinderella club & got wet

 

This is the one at Hoar park right? I'd assumed it was cancelled due to a certain viral event but if it's on I might actually give it a go, I never could before due to being of working age but lovely furlough stops that being an issue!

Yep, Hoar Park, it’s been going since lockdown ended (ish)

Dunno if it will continue in light of the latest recommendation on group sizes.

Winter draws on.... Took the Z500 out today, down to York (Strawberry Fields Cafe) over to Helmsley, then the TT urn to Stoksley and home, 125 miles. New rear suspension working well, will have to soften up the front damping now. Bye bye ATF and hello 5W fork oil.
