Booked the Fury R1 in for it's MOT today. That will mark 8 years on the road and 8 years of bloody good fun! :D

Still looking good after 8 years of hard driving and still going strong. Haven't got out much over winter but my first drive of the year was on the 2nd Jan. Things are starting to warm up. Looking forward to a good summer. About to fit my 5th set of tyres too after 11,800 (mainly road) miles ;-)

Mine will be 7yrs old this May... but it'd be a lot younger without the help of your build blog.

It's starting to look a bit tatty in places unlike yours, Rob. I'm on my 6th set of tyres but getting 4-5000 from a set, though my record is stickers to slicks in 10 days.

Just fast road driving. I blame the rough roads :-)

First properly sunny and warm day today.

Another couple of weekends of excellent driving:

Orford Castle - late Sunday evening drive, perfect weather, empty roads :-)

After this weekend, had to give the Fury R1 a clean. So many bugs!
