I get very bored during the Winter,today i was thinking about things we did last summer, this is just some of it.
Pictures of some of our N Devon rideouts (sorry, boring for some of you)By our babies we mean our lovely 80s Honda’s.
Here we are with Saunton Sands behind us
The Picturescue Ilfracombe Harbor
The bikes here above Heddon Mouth, on the road from Combe Martin to Lynton.
Then on to the fabulous Valley of Rocks, just outside Lynton
This is the highest point in N Devon its called Dunkery Beacon
Me with my bike in Lynmouth
Our bike’s on show at Crediton Classic Vehicle rally.
And again at The South Molton Classic Vehicle/Steam Rally , I didnt like having to ride around the centre ring to show her off though, it made me nervous.
Well thats just a few pictures of the hundreds we have,just can’t wait for next year to come and hopfully get riding again .

Hi Sheilar Thankyou so much, We have spent a lot of hours getting them back to there original condition, but they are worth every minute we have spent. that is why we call them our babbies:)))

Nice to look back, and nice to look forward aswell lol :o) I hope you have some great rides out next year, and then you can show us where you've been ...

Round here, the afficionados tend to ride Ducatis - noisy things, but Sooooo lovely to look at. I want one! Well, I said I fancied growing old disgracefully!
I like the look of your babies, though - such love has been lavished on those- they are all pristine! All that lovely chrome and sparkling red paint - I quite fancy one of those, too!

You cheeky so-and-sos! Actually, I have, for many years now, fantasised of biking, all dressed in pearl grey leathers. Head to toe. Match the hair. Actually, getting much too lumpy for that now. Goodness, it's as well OH doesn't read these, isn't it?

I love the area around South Molten we hired a holiday cottage in this area with the children some years. I can see why you would enjoy the area on a bike lovely scenery.
