This was the scene chez moi last Sunday before the snow really came down and the bike went back into the garage! Since then we have had a couple of lovely days and I rode both bikes (on separate days! )

Tomorrow I am taking the bike to South London Motorcycles to get a set of knobblies fitted as on Saturday I shall be doing a bit of greenlaning - provided that the snow doesn”t come back in earnest..

I have ordered a set of tyre irons and a bead buddy - still neeed a bead breaker probably and a couple of other things, so I can change the tyres back and forth as I need. This is the best site I have found with advice on changing tyres on wheels like mine
