Re: Northern spain/Portugal
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.

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.
