An old love.....
After a very long period of time, today I went out with my first love. My Shadow. A long time she was standing way back in the shed and I could not get myself pulling her out. There was far to much junk standing in front of her.

Now that I'm carless, it is nice to have some sort of transportation at hand. The chopper is a wonderful bike. The Deauville is only a bit heavier, but the weight (read centre of gravity) is so much higher. Allright, it is my first bike and it was love at first sight. I still don't have the heart to sell her. For the shorter distances an ideal bike. So today, together with her, I ran some errands.

Gassing up some old fuel.....
On the old fuel I took a ride to the pier, just before lunch. I took off only one glove to make a picture, because the ferry had just arrived. But it was ugly cold. In the passed week, during my rides, I spotted the first lamb on my retina. Well, springtime has arrived, but I can assure you that it is "king winter" knibbling on my toes, during my ride. So I gave my Shadow a good splash of fresh fuel, before I drive home. Even though it was freezing, I came home with a smile, from ear to ear.
