A perfect place to sleep? - SV650.org

12-05-09, 06:04 PM

Well I've been having a couple of days fun moving house down to near Rotterdam.

I let the removals men take most of my stuff, however the GSX-R and my mountain bike needed a little more care so I slung them behind the Pug for ready to check in to my new rented accomodation.

Down near Rotterdam I've got a nice sized garage, so backed the Pug and bikes in:

As I arrived yesterday before the furniture I pulled a matress out that's beeing stored in the garage and set up camp beside the GSX-R:

I must admit it's pretty comfy, warm and a light aroma of cars, motorbikes, wax, polish and a slight hint of petrol in the background, perfect. A lot better than some places I've slept in

I now have a beer fridge on the same floor, just need a TV and sofa down there and I can leave the rest of the house, perfect

That's a super dooper garage dude!

It'll be like being a student all over again

Trailer came from a trailer shop in Flevoland, I figured I could do with one, a bit far for you to go though Rob!

I'm confused as to why you didnt just take the matress into the house

Sorry, just ended up chuckling at the irony of a decent spec mountain bike in Nederland!

A) It would have been a trip up a twisty staircase with a double matress.

B) It would have been a trip down a twisty staircase with a double matress this morning.

C) It gave me an excuse to sleep with my bike

It was when I was reading the original post that irt suddenly dawned on me that I have no idea where anywhere is in Holland. No idea where Rotterdam is, no idea where Amsterdam is, no idea at all

A left over from living on the edge of the Yorkshire moors! Still to be used in anger here, although I've heard of some single track rumours...

Are you getting much use of the Allez instead?
