my personal best - loading the bike
For those that know me, I've broken my personal best when it comes to getting stuff on the bike, check out these piccies!
 Yes, I did drive with all that kit, 25 of them to be precise and I got up to 70mph and peeps, no, I didn't drop the bike, it was the first time I got both feet flat on the ground S www.mashru.org/avatar/Image013.jpg www.mashru.org/avatar/Image018.jpg www.mashru.org/avatar/Image019.jpg www.mashru.org/avatar/Image021.jpg |

Sarj, that is impressive. I'll see if i can find the piccies of my mates XJR 2 up with probably half as much again on board! Scary stuff. However, it was fun filtering behind him on the way to Wales

Very impressive!
I managed about the same (maybe a little more! ) on my K3 (crap luggage fixings/smaller rear end, etc!) when I've been to bike races in the UK!I had no choice but to take loads, as I needed to take my orange overalls, multiple changes of clothes, steel toe-capped boots, tent, cooking apparatus........... The handling is a little more, erm... Interesting when loaded up though, isn't it!!? |
