2010 has been less than fantastic.

But I'm hoping that things will start to improve in about two weeks.

My life seems to be one big bit of bad luck after another, but then I remember that I have a beautiful wife, a great son, I live in a nice place, enjoy my job, and don't have to worry about money, so all in all, I can't moan too much about the rest.

I've had a crap year too, I'm going to be positive in 2011, have a new Tiger 800 on the way, so that's a good start!

I too will be very glad to see the back of 2010, lost more people than I ever thought I could in a short space of time, and not just through death. However, there have been some good bits and those will be what I try to remember along with the lives of those departed.

Thank goodess we have the org to get us through those difficult times eh?

Roll on 2011, hope it brings everyone what they've wished for x

Of course! I've chosen the XC model, took the road version for a test ride the other week, hated it to start with, but came back with a big smile on my face.
After a bit of an 'incident' on the way to Belgium this year on the 1050, my other half has persuaded me to get a lighter bike, I've damaged my wrist and he hurt his back lifted it up for me, so I am changing reluctantly really.
