Two Wheels Tommy

Sun was promised today so I headed to work for 5am so I could get a mammoth ride in before picking Sam up from school this afternoon. Banging headache put an end to that idea so I had to make do with a 26 mile round trip to the post office. Still got a headache! 🤯

//////////

I can confirm it is bloody freezing out there today. Full jacket back out today. It’s June! 🥶

Great work Honda, 117 miles since fill up and the needle just started moving!

Alpinestars have done alright out of me this week! Gloves/boots/hoodie 😍

Found a nice little spot for my lunch today, my bike is in the photo somewhere 👀

Mod 1 practice has started for me now. If you want to see what you can expect the first time you swing ya leg over a bigger bike give it a watch on my YouTube now 👍🏼

Got a letter published in the new edition of - grab your souvenir copy now 😆

//////////

New foot jackets for the summer - keeping afloat since 2023 😆

//////////

The gloves I’ve been using were starting to feel a bit clunky now the weather is getting warmer so these will do the job over the summer. Excellent service from 👌🏻

//////////

What a fantastic day doing my first lot of Mod 1 training at - had a lot of fun riding a Honda Hornet 750 / Honda CB650R / Suzuki Gladius 👌🏻 Weather was good, banter even better 😆
Paul is a great instructor 🥇

Man’s gotta do , what man’s gotta do 😆

//////////

Been a bit short on time this week so it was nice to get in a sunny ride (the long way round!) to the post office ☀️☀️ Earning her keep 😃

//////////

New video now live on YouTube! Now that my MOD 1 test is booked, I’d better start getting some miles in ! I beat my mileage record last week adding substantially to my tumbleweed overall mileage since doing my CBT 👌🏻

//////////

My latest video is all about how to boss your motorcycle theory test - check it out if you are preparing for yours 👀 Good luck 🤞🏻

//////////

This is the stopping distances revision sheet to accompany today’s motorcycle theory test video 👍🏼

//////////

Morning all, this is the motorycle theory test stopping distances revision sheet, as referred to in today's video. You can see the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9DzSunQAGo

Awkward selfie 🤪 Who cares though, when the weather is this nice. 64 miles on this little island today. Get in ❤️🚀

//////////

Lush sunny day today, rude not to, right?! ☀️☀️❤️

//////////

I’ve been rocking Oakley Frogskins since the 90’s but sadly the frames are a little too big to work comfortably with my helmet. Also the polarisation messes with the vision through the visor. Time to try something with a smaller frame - loving the Oakley Latch (non- polarised!) 😎

//////////

Theory test out of the way, MOD 1 test now booked with - Nice little jolly to the mainland 🏍️

//////////

I am still gobsmacked that people watch the guff I put on YouTube, but now over 2000 people have found enough value in it to hit the subscribe button 💥. Thank you all ❤️

//////////

This week I did my first ride after dark! Check out my latest YouTube video to see how that went! Link in bio 👀🙏🏼

//////////

Gearing up for my first ride in the dark shortly 👻

//////////

The sun has got his hat on, hip hip hip hooray 😃☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️ What a lovely day for a spin 👌🏻

//////////

Theory test this morning, only went and passed it 💪🏻 49/50 on the questions, 65/75 on hazard perception 👌🏻 First step towards a bigger bike 🔑

//////////

I showed you some stealth reflective stickers I’ve been working on recently, these have a gloss black appearance but reflect back a bright orange colour when light hits it. They are now available on my website should anyone be interested 👀 VELOVIZ.CO.UK 👀

It’s not what you think it is, unless it is what you think it is 🤔

//////////

I took advantage of a lovely sunny day last week to film a reconstruction of my CBT practical ride - it’s on YouTube now if you are interested, link in bio 👀

//////////

A rare break in the awful weather occurred this week 😃 New video on YouTube (Link in bio 👀)

//////////

When I’m not riding my motorcycle I’m a specialist reflective printer. Today I knocked up some stealth black reflective stickers (they reflect orange) so I can ditch the nasty orange standard reflectors. Need to darken up the orange a bit but they’ll be grand 👌🏻
