If You Have The Time, I Have The Ride…
Today I collected my stunning new Kawasaki ER-6F. Was this the motorcycle I originally wanted…no. I had intended to get her twin, the ER-6N, but after some hurdles (and maybe some pragmatism?)

Gear Update, Nolan N102
The first piece of my gear has arrived, aptly, the helmet. It is a Nolan N102.
