Scenic Chook food run

13/04/14 
Lou and I took Phoebe out this afternoon. A blat through the villages and a few miles of single track farm roads across the downs, proper Ural country. And then deafened the tourists with the roar and rattle of Ural tappets through the narrow back streets of Winchester. Phoebe certainly gets noticed, people of all ages pointing, smiling and waving. And if you can bring a smile to peoples faces that's gotta be a good thing. Came out of Scat's with our sacks of chook feed to find a couple in their 80's taking photo's of her in the car park, had pleasant chat with them about their sidecaring exploits in their youth. loaded up with 40kg of grain and pellets which made for some interesting handling and headed off home the old girl still pulled like a train over the hills and downs. Nice ride out and got to know the pink beastie a bit better, and what she's is capable of. Must admit I feel like I've had a bit of a work out at the gym though.
