  It's just about to arrive here I think....

Do you know what? When we got there Triumphs out numbered any other Marque buy 10:1.

Anyway, you're all wimps.  Aren't we supposed to be hardy adventure bikers? It's good to test your kit from time to time.

Brilliant, looks like you gave your jaws a good test too.

What makes an Adventure Bike? The nut that's holding the throttle

Yeah, well.......it took us 4&1/2 hours from Hastings (left at 07:30 and got there at 12:30 with 1/2 hour at Loomies for a spot of breaky).....the long and winding way. Perfectly dry undrneath. Just damp around the neck. The wettest I got all day was when I washed my hands and face when I got home.

 although the Bultaco i had, with a Sammy Miller frame would have made it, with it,s air filter under the seat,but at40 mph perhaps not, and the seat just a little more comftable than the tiger,seriously  must resolve that one, any suggestions : been back from my last trip 2 weeks and still sore  blah

[sooty757]

  i kind meant the weather came in from the west so i would have been in the heavy stuff for all the way there, going home could have been better.whimmpy but it was flooded over here,  ??

great weather radar link tar
