    Met up with Thumper for a quick breakfast near RAF Cosford and it seemed rude not to at least take a peak at the museum nearby….

    I checked out the cafe at Quatt on the way back. A few moments after this shot was taken the clouds gathered and the place emptied really quickly, people took to their bikes like fighter pilots running to their aircraft for a scramble!

    When I say dodging the showers, I actually mean almost dodged

    Despite the soggy ending a good ride out
