This one’s a proper Friday Mutter on the Royal Enfield Bear 650 — no big plan, just me out on the bike, having a chinwag and letting the ride do the talking. I’m rolling through the usual mix of photos, little clips, and whatever catches my eye, and it turns into one of those rides where you’re reminded that the road doesn’t always play ball. Closed roads, diversions, and the kind of faff that can turn a simple bimble into a bit of an adventure. I also get into a troublesome Moto Guzzi Lario situation — the sort of thing that makes you love bikes and want to headbutt a wall at the same time. And then there’s the cones… honestly, if cones had legs, they’d be off and running, because they’re everywhere and never where you want them. If you like the no-nonsense, year-round riding stuff — bikes, bike nights, and real-life riding annoyances — this one’s exactly that: simple, honest, and straight from the saddle.
