42K service, new head race bearings and a new back tyre, and the old girl is transformed. I've just got back from a happy evening ride, scrubbing in the new tyre, and appreciating how much improved the handling is. I love evening riding, and the hills and dales of the Peak District are a biking playground to bring a grin to the most jaded of ground-down commuters. Happy happy joy joy!

I'd better go and have a lie down now...

Glad your bike is reborn again :razz:

I just DO NOT get tired of riding my Tiger, it always brings that smug grin on my face after a ride. And you are lucky enough to be in one of the best biking areas in the UK as well

Don't go and lie down, go get another 20 miles in :-D

Did lie down, but today I've done rather more than another 20 miles. My grin is in danger of meeting up round the back of my head.
