Default The Sun Has Got His Hat On........

Hi all - its fabulous weather here in the south of England 29% and sunny. Had a great ride out today and how nice it is to see all the bikers acknowledging each other whether they be on on a Harley or otherwise. I am going up into the Chilterns tomorrow morning for coffee and a good old English breakfast at a biker pub in the middle of the English countryside. Then chill out and swap war stories and head home to watch the Turkish GP - what better way to spend a Sunday

Sounds like English weather to me, I was in the UK in 1995, in Wigan. As for the rest of YALL the official mothers day (mum's day, UK style) was March 2, 2008. Cheers mate.
