Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

Chairhead does it every year.  I cracked up at the photo of having to stand the cans of (frozen) beer in hot water so they could drink them :lol:

BlackTiger, it seems like your suggestion about them joining us fell on deaf ears. One lad did say that it should be open to all Tigers and not just the 800 but keep the forum informed of any changes or plans. I'll start a thread in the new year about our meet.

Yes, it did seem that way but hey, it's not as if this forum had to have the exclusive rights to Tiger meets. We'll have to wait to see what they come up with. It could be a damp squib with no-one wanting to do much.

Eh?
Bit off topic old boy.
OK so the 955 Tiger does a constant high 50s and doesn't really matter how it's ridden. Although I find I don't need to rev it above 5K to make good progress.
The 800XC does low 50s when really enjoying myself but can get 10mpg more by reducing the acceleration rate.

sorry it was just the mention of the gathering being oprganised by the 800 forum, and I was just pre-empting the talk around the campfire as its a bit of a contentious subject 'over there' !  :D  :D

Seems like this lot are going to the Lake district May 12/13th.
