Bike is back at the dealers now, when they were preparing it they possibly overtightened the oil fill level plug and stripped the thread. Has ruined my day out on it tomoz but will be fixed by lunch time hopefully

Took my lil 200 green laning this afternoon. Had a right giggle and will go back there again for sure

The bike is far better than I’ll ever be, couldn’t go too fast mainly coz of pedestrians but also coz I ride like a pussy lol

Need to mount my camera next time I go so to make a vid

[HippoDrones]

I wore my leathers on this ride, kept me pretty warm

Top man Pete…

travelled up to Scotland with some toys to play with yesterday, took out the 200 today on some fire roads around one of the lochs. Have not ridden the 200 anywhere near as much as I should have done but I felt at home straight away and having knobblys on the wheels gave me far more confidence than the cut slicks on my Husky – not that I struggled with that either as the tracks are pretty easy going.

I have to massively sing the praise of the 200 tho, so much nicer to ride than the 2008 EXC250f that I had before (although I think that was a duffer out the box tbh)

Have not uploaded all the vids yet, the one below is how most of the ride was, pretty wide rocky/stoney tracks and easy going (I’m just a pussy and also not used to my bike yet)

Here are a few pics as well:

I finished the ride and then shoved some fish and chips down me neck looking out onto the Loch

Can’t wait to get back out there again

Great views, but sure about the fish and chips, were they any good?

[HippoDrones]

lol [] the fish and chips was ace, breaded rather than battered tho, tbh I think any food would have been awesome, needed the energy! lol
