More back country shenanigans
More travels through hidden corners. This time a Scrambler owner is exploring the relic town and gravel single track road in Montana. Adventure awaits for this willing to head onto the road less ridden.

Devils Tower

There’s nothing like the architecture of mighty trees overhead. Natures cathedral.

Country Lane
– I had to go and visit a new project site today. So I took the Tiger for a spin up Sheridan Road along the Lake. Turning off a small lane took me through a quiet corner of the northern suburbs in true rustic fashion. The overcast sky and splash of rain only enhanced the turning colors.

Well worth the wait
– with over a year waiting for its eventual release; the latest Jane’s Bond outing is all you could want in a 160-odd minute action movie. The initial bike chase sequence, through the narrow and steep streets of Madera, Italy, sets up the film in true 007 fashion. An exciting final outing for Daniel Craig as the agent protagonist.

Gentle Persuasion
A new battery, ticked carbs, hefty kick and she started right up. Settled into gentle burble ready for the off. Want to check fluids, cables and tires. Then an autumnal ride should be on the cards.
