Gave the zed a quick wash this morning & decided to go for a swift blat round some local lanes to dry it off, it's sometimes surprising what's on your doorstep :)

Smartbear's photography skills have improved since he got the E89, previously we were presented with acres of gravel driveway and a distant car :D Now he incorporates matching coloured windmills and churches with oak trees and conifers :thumbsup:
Mr Wilks is a past master at framing the Zed :wink:

Hi, I'm in Billericay and frequently cycle (and drive) round these areas. That long straight down the side of the reservoir is too tempting............... :lol:
