I'm so jealous, cant wait to get back out on the bike. I've not done long distance at all and I still cling on for dear life, must try to relax more!

Be a long time before I can put my helmet on though I think

I didn't think it was possible, but it's amazing how comfortable a pillion can get.
Slept on my mates bike when getting a pillion ride back to college. Fell asleep where M6 joins M1 and woke up at the bottom of the M10. Mark didn't know I was asleep.........

I usd to wave at truckers to see how many waved back, or see how many kids were pointing at you......or even better see how many fat blokes were picking their nose at the wheel.
