Slid it down to the main road in -2 degrees before the short but bloody skittish ride along for her MOT..
Only recommend to replace rear pads soon.
Was still great to get out for a short blast.
Don't hassle me
I'll get there at some time

Few!
When Lyon said slid it down the road. I thought you had come off for a second.
Glad she passed.
All ready for another year or frollics
