Wonderful ride report, thank you. Very jealous indeed....
It's got part of the route I had planned out for 2020, before a nasty bug ran around the world.
Broke the body 2022 and again early 2023. Will do it now body is kinda working.... This RR is pure motivation.

Re: Road sign that could be used almost anywhere.
We were in Tuscany a few years ago and their widespread practice, where any rural back road was deteriorating, was to downgrade it to a ‘track’ and just pour a load of dusty gravel over the top.

Re: Road sign that could be used almost anywhere.
Just posted it onto the Farming Forum where there is a discussion on rural road maintenance..... or complete lack of!
However, as some of the "old timers" here will know, today's badly maintained road is tomorrow's washed out track, ready for fun and games!!

Re: XR400 is it any good ???
Well, don't ask me why , but I've gone and bought another XR400 to keep mine company in the garage. 😜🤣🤣 Actually, I bought it as a wee winter project to tidy up and move on in the spring of next year but it's in absolutely cracking condition. Might just keep it to look at. 🤔😜🤣 Well, if one is good,...

A charming man and as Steve says, a Gentleman.
I did not know him as well as some here, but enjoyed his company immensely and exchanging cheerful emails after we met first. A clever Man.
