The roads were empty-ish as I rode the Indian Chief Vintage back to my home and office from my mum’s conservatory \u2013 where I have been hiding from Amanda’s self-isolation \u2013 and while I know the northern route across the Peaks between South Derbyshire and Cheshire would have been much more fun, I stuck to the dull carriageway to avoid standing out … this picture was from the shoot a month ago for this issue.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I didn’t want to spend half an hour at the side of the road qualifying whether my journey was essential \u2013 indeed whether the exemption apparently enjoyed by journalists extended to motorcycle journalists: I had stuff to do.<\/p>\n

That stuff was sending out back issues and t-shirts from our unattended, clean warehouse because as long as the postal service is running, I’m going to be doing a weekly post run, probably on a Tuesday … it is Tuesday today, isn’t it?<\/p>\n

SO, what’s going on and what are we doing?<\/p>\n

The new magazine hits the shelves on Thursday<\/strong> \u2013 should be on subscribers doormats today, I’m hoping, but in these strange times I wouldn’t hold my breath \u2013 but it’s unlikely to be the same shelves as it would previously have been.<\/p>\n
