It was a chilly morning as I set off for a bimble on the XT. I decided to take a few turnings I have ridden past on so many occasions and wondered "where does that go..."
I then stumbled upon what is left of an old WW2 RAF Airfield at Tarrant Rushton on the way to Blandford Forum. It only closed in the 1980s. I then stopped for a Covid spaced cup of tea at Compton Abbas Airfield which is just outside Shaftesbury. Having slatted my thirst, I then rode over and around Salisbury Plain and then on to Salisbury for a meeting and another cup of tea with William Shakespeare. Finally arriving home in the dark.
Here is a finally picture of both bikes all clean and polished. Of course the next question to be answered is: which one should I take to the USA next year!!!
