Good 2 car garage. Both provide plenty of smiles, but in different ways.

Went too early. But your comment on body style meant I got that first time!

Bath time for the 5. Colour really pops in the sun, but photos don't show it fully.

Disappointed it took so long to get it. Coffee required this morning!

Will post more photos later from yesterday at Bicester for the Scramble, but here is one of the last bike I saw into production from my time at Triumph that I spotted. The Daytona 765 Moto2 Limited Edition.

The wee GR needed a bath before the Scramble tomorrow, much better now. 😃

Lovely trip up to Chatsworth today. Went round the house and found the violin and took some pics. Particularly liked the abstract image of a chaise longue (3rd one).

It's the carbon dial Alex Palou one today, with added carbon courtesy of the rear mudguard on one of our RM2s. 😃

Sat looking at it for a few minutes going, I know what this is.... Then the cogs finally clicked into gear.

Should have gone with my first instinct! Second guessed myself and thought it had to be American because they so often are on here....

Couldn't quite place it first time, then bounced around the years.

Quick bath for the 5. Was going to give it a polish and ceramic sealant, but then it started spitting and then the sun came out and the surfaces got too warm to do it. Also, missed the 1000 mile mark, but got the 1100 one today!

2 small cars, both very good at what they are designed for. Both make me smile, and are a great pair.

Got distracted looking out of the window. Still find myself looking at this wee thing, now to go for a drive to nowhere.

Fantastic day with the eldest over at Duxford Air Museum. Must be 40 years since I was last there, but very glad we went. Really worth a visit. Pictures are Short Sunderland flying boat, Vulcan from Concorde, SR-71 Blackbird and AF-10. So much more to see, definitely a full day required!

Never going to get that unless I had enough goes to get through the entire list....
