Up towards the Brecon Beacons - bright sunny day, almost no traffic and well behaved sheep!

Just thought I'd share; hope some of you got to enjoy your bike today too... :D :D :D

I've only done about 100 miles this year.
Had to replace a clutch cable which kept it off the road for a few days, now its running like crap on 2 cyclinders. R6 in 3 weeks :lol:
