The regular evening walk from the site takes me past this lovely gaff with custom gates perfect for someone close to home...
Choice of three strolls of differing lengths all take me past some impressive properties and beautiful countryside vistas
Sunset in the stubble....
The bike is out most days with me at the helm and off exploring the delights of the Suffolk B roads so loads to see, this time pigs....and lots of em!
A trip out one day to Bungay up near Lowestoft and on the strength of Kev's recommendation I trot along to St Peter's Brewery
I end up buying a good selection of their finest beers and then stuff them in the topcase and listen to them bouncing around behind me on the trip home
So many of these out now bringing in the wheat
A classic shot but couldn't resist it
As I bought the bike locally this time last year its now time to revisit the BMW Motorrad garage near Sudbury for its first service
The loan bike is an S1000XR complete with slick quickshifter and wicked acceleration. Big grin factor but not the bike for me as I'm more comfortable on the GS
The salesman's work transport which I fancied taking for the morning but alas not a demonstrator
A few hours later and I'm back on familiar wheels
RAF Mildenhall one sunny afternoon
The days are spent with physio at outside locations in the morning and then being told to ride the bike come most afternoons whilst Nina rests. Who could ask for anything more!
Non biking days are spent shopping, visiting Emilja and Richard or doing the essential jobs 'around the house'. This one is wheel polishing which involved a few days of elbow grease consumption
Fitting new pegs to the bike for better control...
Horrid bottle but stunning Lime laced spiced rum which was discovered in Morrisons of all places..
Bike beer
Those beauties from St Peter's which needed a second trip of course
The worst....
great!
The best and the source of huge disappointment when on the second beer gathering trip there they'd sold out....
So in the space of four weeks we manage to destress, see some of Suffolk and of course advance the healing of Nina before returning home to Derbyshire. A beautiful peaceful part of the world and somewhere we can go for a change of scene....
Some lovely images there Pete. That little camera is very good. Glad you had a chill out month. Jane & I hoping to do that now my Mum has returned to her house
