Twas many moons ago and nary a pen to paper.. Well enough of that- whats new on the bike front

Well

The GSA 800 went in January 2020. Great bike, did all I wanted it to do, but didn't do any long trips. I was worried about this "Corona" thing and all the worry that was building up and decided I needed to get liquid and just run the Patrol for the year.. So it sold to the first bidder. Very happy man who came up from Windsor!

So virus comes, locks down the country and Im merrily searching for a bike to replace the GSA.. I knew it wouldn't last, this bike -less thing.. Not many things last when you actually dont like it and not having two wheels that actually run kinda blows.. That said, I dont wanna look back when im sipping my dinner through a straw and shitting my depends and thinking " why did I not ride in (add any year)" So tick the Enfield box and buy a Himalayan, sounds easy... It wasn't.. Dealing with the local dealer was like nails on a chalkboard.. Horrid and worth its on post.... which may need to be explored.

So what to do.. C wanted a bike, I had funds so... 2020 CRF 110 for the lad.. He was so excited.. Again, worthy of another post.. The torch had been lit for the oldest!!

Now for me.. I sat on a CRF 250 Rally in Dec last year and wasn't impressed but it was June and I was loosing time.. Spoke to the dealer that sold me the 110 and he said " put your deposit for 2021 models as they're gone". So whats a boy to do.. Call around 'cause I call BS on the none around.. First call, sourced one and put a hold on her.. Picked it up 2 weeks later. 

So I will do a ride report on that bike for blog idea #3 if your counting.. Suffice it to say, it was a decent price, 2019 and gutless as hell.. But you know what, I already got a speeding fine and I am loving the shit out of it...So miserly on the fuel- so easily flickable.. So for now, she's the mainline bike for me..

However, 

someone is taunting me, teasing and singing a syrens song..... A blast from my past has eerily come home....
