Great Bike there Loggy.
Don't polish it as much as riding it will you :whistle:

That chain does look tight as per a previous post.

Enjoy... and welcome to the Africa Twin experience

An exciting day out you two.

Hehhehehe ...

Thanks An, Gary for a great day. Sorry about all the moaning but I was really cold and really wet. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Good trails and Gary thanks for leading. Don't worry about slowing me down. It was good to practice my slow control on the trails. :P :P

An, we had some fun but sadly on ...

Thanks for a great day out Tyrant68 And thanks Phil90 for a great run between the peaks and home - despite my fastest riding I couldn't shake him- could always hear him - I'm cold and wet ! ;-) Was also great to play with a Dslr camera worth a fortune and not worry about damaging it as it wasn't ...

Personally I like the varadero - but ...

I can you it coming together :-)

I have a limited amount of time off but would love to go to some of the far away places such as Morocco , Portugal.
I want that time to be spent 'on location' rather than getting there.

It is difficult to put a price on such a ...

Great day for a ride !
