That looks awesome! How did the gixxers cope with the Ventura packs on them?

Re: France Trip Report - pic intensive!
 

I wouldn't fancy doing it with a pillion. Would be much less fun and uncomfortable.

Didn't know the pack rack was there. The Beamer was much slower with those bread bins on, but to me it was hardly noticable on the gixer.

Defo went through Etaxlar to and from San Sebastian, also crossed the border at Garaitarreta. I think we went past Eugi (lake) on the N138. Thats from me looking at a map now, but that bit up to, passed and after the lake were probably my favourite section of road.

If it wasn't Eugi, it was another quite large lake with an awsome road along side it. I was on one at the time and remember wanting to stop to take in the scenary and take some snaps, but the adrenaline and the Gixer kept me focused on the road!
