961s and mountains, I’ll throw my recent trip to the Pyrenees into the hat.

ignore the GSs, they are as common as flies

I’d have taken more pictures but was too busy enjoying myself.

Actually BritTwit we do... it's called the American West. As beautiful as the Swiss Alps, German Alps, Austrian Alps and the Italian Dolomites are ( I visited them all when I lived in Europe from the late 70's and throughout the 80's) none of them come close to the sheer beauty found in the hundreds of Mountain ranges and lakes found in places in the West with little to no crowds.

Great scenery, boring roads..

I’m currently trying to develop a mobile humidity controlled transparent bubble to envelope and protect my CR whilst riding - hoping that it’s not going to affect handling on a windy day!!!?

Is that not a car!!
Electric of course

Short 120 km ride this morning - Can’t just blast past this view of the Glasshouse Mountains. Have to stop to see if there are any dinosaurs roaming around! Looks like there should be to me!

Bike was flawless, although it ejected another tank bolt. A little tighter next time and fingers crossed I don’t rotate the fixing.

Another 100 mile jaunt around Northumberland and stopping at Allenheads for a coffee.
Suspension makes sense the faster you go.

All this Nortoning and you will be catchy blighty britt up on the mileage stakes. Wasn't this the 961 that was on ebay several months back?

Certainly with those carbon wheels fitted. Was going to get my suspension set up by a professional until I had the carbon wheels fitted. Didn’t really feel the need to after that.

Took a ride with my grandson to a local car show today. That's him with his Mk3 next to my 961. We got some nice comments on the bikes from some of the older car guys.
