Cheers guys for all the +feedback. Much appreciated.

SV + Wales + Mr Sunshine = Wicked Trip.

Tell you what, there were some absolute plonkers driving on the way home (I reckon they had stayed the weekend from the match at Cardiff).

Back to wet man hol covers, poor roads, roads over crowded with road furniture, paint and tits driving vehicles they can't even tell you what engine capacity they are driving let alone its reg plate for ignorance about the 2tons of steel machine they nearly & obliviously "sorry i didn't see you" whacked you with or how to drive it [surrey mommies in mercs & 4x4s].


there ... ive had my rant .. i feel a lot happier. Please return for next weeks "X5 & M3" rant.

Hi.

I left London thurs 6pm got into middle wales 00:00 ish .. camped .. rode all day friday and loved it - spanking weather! Sat & Sun parents came up with the ridgebacks so beach

had a R&G tail tidy on ... rear wheel must have traveled up so far on a bumpy section that it must have clipped number plate. Sat morning 10am noticed no numberplate, just one screw with a token part of shattered plate.

Decided to do nothing about it, avoid all possible police and if pulled over pretend I wansn't aware and how kind of the police to point it out! well what do you do with 400miles to ride and no plate??


*a pic I took of one of our ridgebacks in breed standard at polesden lacey - if you guys are near BoxHill you should check it out ... such a pretty house and grounds.

Sorry mate. Me being a bit slow ... i meant to say the thursday just gone .. so 4days ago

Silver Sk3 ... Givi, Red Diving Bag (tent,sleepbag,etc) & oxford tank bag ... so not flattering on poor bike

Silver Raid II Helmet (clear&dark tint depend on weather),
Red textile Spidi top,
Yellow safety bands vest (like the instructor design, not builders vest)
black textile trousers
black smx3 (12,000+ !still strong)

did see a few SVs actually - but a bit too much of a blurr to get a "hi" in!
