First drive in 2010

Well due to the rough weather we've had in the UK, this is the first time I've managed to get the VA out of the garage, check it over and take it for a short run. All is fine and I look forward to the sunny warm days with the hood down and the birds tweeting. At the moment it's about 2degC, so a bit chilly with the hood off, but that's how I prefer to use it!
