Can't wait to see pictures tomorrow (Home computer's a bit crap)
The SV on those hairpins would be worth the ride!

The miles at the start and end werent terrible - so long as you know to expect it.

On a sports bike it would be tough on the wrists and knees. The tank bag I had dealt with wind on the chest so only got a bit rough around 115 when the helmet is trying to rip your head off. But mostly 90-100 all the way. The A26 was wide open with little traffic.

I was so excited so the day went quick down - just listened to music all the way and refilled every 100miles. The way back I was so sick of twisties it was nice to cruise back up the motorway. I saw my first british biker on the A26 back!
