National Motorcycle Week 2009


Yes, it's:

National Motorcycle Week, 2009!

From 12th - 18th July 2009

With 'Ride to Work Day' on Weds. 15th July.

Bit of an unusual event for me, this; 'usual' RtWD was a ride to work - my usual transport. But this year I own a car, so have a choice!

I Have Seen . . .

Every now and again I'll post up an 'I have seen . . . ' thread.

Today is different.

My wife has seen . . .

. . . Someone asleep in what had been a queue of cars waiting at a railway level crossing. The barriers had lifted, the cars ahead moved off.

Drivers [irate, ones at that] behind were tooting.

Boris Johnson out around London town with his friends . . . having a toddle on their bicycles.
