TT, Tims Tour LOL!

 

Following on from this job it was once again time to hit the road and keep on moving!

The Lake District was still damp as I left my B+B in Ulverston and made my way south west. Passed Martinmacs turnoff, nice part of the world mate B)

Flat calm day, but luckily I had a cabin booked and had a rest. Only got disturbed when i started to move up and down the bed without trying:lol:

Here I was kindly met by Cupra Dave (off this forum) and he took me back to his place which was to be my base for the next 2 weeks.

No rest though as it was bags in the room then out in his Scoob for a lap of the famous TT course, excellent!

 

The next day Dave and his wife were at work so I made busy and got some practise in.

Washed, clayed and given a coat of platinum. Tyres dressed, glass cleaned.

Dave took me to have a look over Douglas and the harbour and then a trip to the Laxey wheel and Laxey mine.
