Is it spring yet?
Discussion
I've not ridden a bike for fun since October, I have a new (to me) bike in the garage and I want to ride the bloody thing, its been 5 months since I pulled a wheelie ffs, I wish winter would f*ck off now, its getting tedious and more snow is forecast tomorrow, I feel like heading to my parents in Spain and hiring a bike for a few days but I've no holidays left and I'm skint.

9 deg and sunny day here as I drove home from work earlier through Notts....roll on the weekend....spring is here 
Spring is not here, spring doesn't officially arrive until the temps reach 10 degrees up north, the proper north not some middle England faux northern town, I'm 60 miles from the Scottish border, think BN is even closer, and no I don't need you see another pic of you on your f*cking yellow r1 John

I nearly started this post weeks ago, sick of this s
t now, my ageing memory tells me last year I was outway before now enjoying the bike but that could be b
ks, I cannot remember a year where the roads are full of mud/salt and st like this one but again it could be dementia, Fook it im off to start a post about the weather now because im sick of talking about BN and his yellow R1. That is what this post is about isn't it or is my memory worse than I thought
Wooo! Yellow R1's!!
Normally keep my bike taxed through the Winter but this year I've SORN'd it and this is where the rot sets in.
Busy with work next weekend and social the one after so now thinking might as well tax it April 1st for 6 months, that'll take me to end of September and what with Portimao track day in October that's probably enough.
It's a rubbish way of thinking - must get back to having a useable bike 12 months of the year even if wazzing around on white salty roads is not good for the bike it's good therapy for me.

I got fed up of waiting to bring the GSXR back out, so purchased a KTM 450 enduro.
Agreed it's no superbike, however, tearing down the green lanes i still get my, albeit it different, bike fix. The snow was also a good laugh out on the roads where most other cars were getting stuck.
Maybe an option for next year for you op?
