For a variety of reasons I had not been able to get out on a bike for a few weeks, so it felt disproportionately good to get out for a bit recently, albeit on my elderly 550 Kwak. It was just a local meander about, but it was lovely late summer’s afternoon with a soft, mellow sun gently warming my back. In the end I wound up covering nearly 40 miles around the lovely lanes of Worcestershire that I count myself lucky to live among. Oddly at one point as I came into Stourport-on-Severn I even got entangled in large charity ride out somehow and as it made its way through the town the streets were lined with people cheering us. I know it’s a while since I have been out, but it’s not THAT big a deal! This surreal moment soon passed and I meandered home, coaxing the 550 along in lower echelons of its rev range. So I pulled up back at home a chilled and happy man, I tell you what, bikes sure are better at reducing stress than yoga or meditation that’s for sure!
It was one of those days when you just run into odd stuff…
I like the canal barge with bike parking, that looked a bit precarious for such an expensive machine!

It does a bit, I have seen a Yamaha 535 on barge during a TV show about the waterways, but he actually sacrificed accommodation space for it
I’ve helmed a canal barge before, bloody horrible things to steer
That’s quite a comment from somebody more used to Submarines!
They are quite good fun if you ignore the lack of view!
Nautilus had a big window at the front…
