Good start to 2025

[Anthony Duffield]

I usually try to cover around 5K miles/year, last year I managed 4245 short of my target but had a good year attending the NOC International Rally in Spain, enjoying the mountains from Bilbao to Barcelona and a good ride up through France to Cherbourg.

Unfortunately owing to work commitments I am not going to be able to attend either the NOC National or Internal Rallies organised for 2025, so in between trips overseas I plan to do as much in the UK as possible, there is of course the Norton Rotary get together in September that I am looking forward to.

My last ride before the weather turned was a short 80 miles to McDuff, hopefully this wet weather will sort itself out so I can some more miles on the Commander.

My first ride of 2025 was 24th February, with the good weather we have had so far I have managed to cover 354 miles, a planned ride today was cancelled owing to it being very wet and windy, better luck next week.

February is usually still a bit cold for this old biker,March looked a lot warmer so I taxed the old Deaville 1st of March and have had a couple of nice ride outs with a local biker club.
Not planning on doing any International Rallies this year,but expect to be kept pretty busy with local stuff.
I intend to attend the Rotarie bash in the West country(if it goes ahead) hope to see quite a few familiar faces from past rallies, ride safe,J.B.
