Pandemic - Exercising The Bikes
BMW R90S - Moto Distancing - R90S Edition. Thanks to Scott Shull for coming out with his matching Daytona Orange R90S. A beautiful day for a ride to Scapoose, Vernonia, Birkenfeld, and Elsie. These are remarkably competent 44 year-old bikes - once you realise that the brake technology wasn't the same back then.
Ducati 916-1098 - Appropriate distance maintained. Great weather and these two bikes needed some exercise. 1995 Varese 916 and a 2008 1098R. Both are viscerally exciting but the 1098R takes the adrenalin to a different level for me and - again - what a difference a decade makes in brake technology. Thanks for coming out Quentin Wilsdon. Amazing clean air and views from Rocky Point Road over Sauvie Island and Portland.
Ducati Bevels - One of these bikes is completely stock. Thanks to Christian Hansen and Quentin for coming out to exercise two of the Bevels in my garage. You know your afternoon with a 40 year old super-bike is not complete until you are flagging down strangers to borrow their tools. (Overheated brakes)
Staying healthy includes mental health too. So lucky to own these bikes that honour three great British riders and to now these great enthusiasts to ride with.
