This Sunday I decided to pay a visit to the local Advanced Motorists “First Sunday of the Month” – Solent Advanced Motorcyclists
This time I was out on the TDM850, as it was a bit foggy and I could not be bothered to play musical bikes to get the Hardly out.
I was pottering along on a nice wide road when a suicidal Blackbird “appeared” in front of the bike just in time to ricochet off the headlight.
I did not bother stopping this time, and a quick glance in the mirror seem to confirm that it was still flying, all be it a bit erratically.
Next Sunday i was thinking of doing a bit of green laning on the XT.
I am now having second thoughts, or maybe I should keep a close eye out for cows :O
