 Great scenery pics Mick.    Looks like a prime motorcycle riding area. Just spent 15 minutes reading about the Lake District, all new to me. Here's a map for anyone else unfamiliar with the area.
  The F1 looks crisp too. :)

Them stone fences don't look too friendly, guess they would keep your mind on the road around all that beautiful scenery.

Just found an old country road that had the tree growing over top of it.. Very pretty and curvy.

Cafe Racing is mainly a matter of taste. It is an atavistic mentality, a peculiar mix of low style, high speed, pure dumbness, and overweening commitment to the Cafe Life and all its dangerous pleasures. I am a Cafe Racer myself, on some days - and it is one of my finest addictions. ~H. S. Thompson~

Gotta love it when the trees make a tunnel over the road. Great looking bike too.

Is that the same tank that you posted a thread about making the dents in Jag? 

Sorry to Hi-jack such a great thread, but I just read Jag's post earlier today.  I also know I'll be posting some pics with the riding season quickly approaching, that should compensate the Hi-jack right!?!

Nice bikes guys. :D
Still my favourite area of the site, more more more please.
Guess I gotta wait for the Summer riding season in the North to kick off and all them SOHC4's to come out from under the covers. ;)
