in planning » Monyash Peak District Sunday 10th Oct

Hi All,
This is a late shout, I’m keen to enjoy this tropical autumn weather, so a ride into the UK Peak District tomorrow, stopping at the Old Smithy cafe in Monyash ( quite close to Bakewell) around 10:30am.
So if anyone’s in the vicinity and fancies a catch up I’ll be there. Most likely on my Lupin R1200RS or possibly my smoke grey R100RS.
Usually a few bikes there without there on a nice day.

Enjoy the sunshine and the ride out, its a great little cafe visited a few times when out walking in the area.

If I'd seen the post earlier would have been tempted to pop over and say hello, although being retired I tend to try and avoid the weekends as it is often a lot busier.
Anyway have a great day out and about I'm off to cut the grass shortly

It was a lovely day and plenty of bikes there, no one from the forum as far as I know, at least not on their RS’s.
Don’t blame you avoiding the weekends, I certainly will once retirement is reached. Cut and edged the lawns this afternoon, so fully up to date on the weekend tasks ( are you ever?).

Glad to hear you had a good day out, weather was great, hopefully I’ll be able get out for a ride during the week, weather looks ok, dry, if a little cooler, so promising.
I have found the weekend jobs expand once your retire, living in the Peaks always try and do jobs over the weekend and then try and have as much of the week free when it’s much quieter on the roads towns and the footpaths.

Oh well never mind!
Check tyre pressures before going out for a run to Shrewsbury and area this morning, found front slightly low, topped up, but rear over 1.5 Bar low, pumped up and then checked tyre, discovered a metal stable partially buried in tyre, pulled it out and could hear air leaking out - have marked location and just called BMW Assist, just waiting to see what they do.

Bmw tech on way, about 30mins away, two options temp repair or recover to dealer, planning on going for the temp repair, and then I'll book it in and have a run out to my preferred dealer later in week.

All done, just got to book it dealers tomorrow when they open, for later this week for permanent repair or replacement.

Chester motorrad is the one I have used since Rainbow changed ownership
