Cold, wet and foggy. Perfect weather for the pink handguards and no problem for Karen, solo or in a group.
I didn’t grow up in a motor-cycling family. At one stage during my childhood Dad had a farm bike with a homemade sidecar. In truth it was a metal box for carting tools and parts around the farm, but he’d also take us for little joy rides up and down the track beside the house. I seem to recall that stopped when Mum took my sister for a ride. The sidecar and bike began parting company and they ended up through a barbed-wire fence.
