I'm seriously considering getting the dream out of winter sleep mode, do you think it's safe yet?  |

Yesterday we walked into Brigg in glorious sunshine, and I think the temp got into double figures. But today it was a white over frost, thick fog and has barely crept above zero degrees.
Far too soon for me....

Get a treadmill big enough to run your bike on, get a flat screen tv and dv player.
Put on some clips of the rolling Yorkshire Dales pre recorded last year with your helmet cam.
Dress up in all your biker gear, gloves, helmet and scarf included, honestly you wont know the difference.
And your Dream will thank you for not splashing it with brime.

I just hope you guys are wiping 'em down before putting 'em away if you're taking 'em out...
That salt takes no prisoners at all.

I'm convinced that the car manufacturers, the government and the salt companies are all working hand in hand to undermine the value of our vehicles so as to make more out of us on the sale of new vehicles as well as the maintenance of old vehicles, mots etc ! I wonder why they have not come up with an alternative for salt on the roads yet.
