Everything needed raising dabbers. It was proper funny .... If I'd got stuck completely that woulda been fun trying to gerrit out!!!

Tent is just a cheapo Gelert single skin. Just camera angle makes it look tall. I have gelert 1 man that is mega 2piece. This one crap but fine for a night or two.

Cheers chaps, bike really shines on the back roads but if i'm honest there were times i wished furra little more ooph on such a big mile day out, only in the morning though, funnily enough going out, probably a little impatient to get to Wales, on a sidenote though, seems to me all drivers on all roads are just slowing down.. Was a mega day  :good:


Boike lookin good there dabs.
