Traffic holdup

Held up tonight on the way home from work due to the M8 motorway being closed. Lots of emergency vehicles and a Police helicopter hovering overhead. Apparently a man had climbed onto to one of the overhead signs.
Rode the scooter to the head of the very long queue, but was let through after about 15 - 20 minutes.

DGR - compare and contrast

Official video from this year's Distinguished Gentleman's Ride.


As you can see, lots of smartly dressed riders in various cities around the world riding in glorious sunshine.

Meanwhile in Glasgow.......


Yes, it was that wet! That's me loading things into my wicker basket at the 02:00 mark.

Still, we got out there and raised a lot of money for charity - let's hope it's a bit nicer next year!
