Re: Cold Weather tips?

Not kit related but I always have a can of winter tyre grip (liquid snow chains) in the top box. I have ridden on wet ice with this stuff and it does what it says on the tin. Handy to have if you get caught out in snow or by black ice.

Re: Would a Bivvy be any good?

For some of my trips I have used a mini peak 2 tent from backpacking light. Pitches with a single pole in just a few minutes. Plenty of room inside for gear and packs very small. The only issue with it is that the sleeping compartment is cramped if your 6ft plus. https://www.backpackinglight.co.uk/s...

Re: Go Big and Ride Small

Another 210 miles done today but no photos as I was riding mostly through the heavy rain in the highlands this morning.

Re: Honda trail cub.

I must admit I was surprised when they told me they were taking deposits. The deposits they are taking are £100 fully refundable so I figured it was a good way to show how good the potential market for this bike is to Honda. Nothing talks like money. I really want one as a slow tourer. This year has...

Re: Honda trail cub.

They aren't sure on price yet but have taken 12 deposits (fully refundable) at this dealer alone and seem very confident they will get them. The last I heard was that we were just after the USA launch. The US only getting the red model. You'll have to pay us a visit again soon if you're in the area ...

Honda trail cub.

Well rang a dealer today to enquire about the trail cubs European release date only to find that they are taking deposits. Gave them my cash so I'm now on the list. The rumour is that it is an early 2021 release in Europe. Can't wait to start some micro adventures on it.

Re: Bikers ain't what they used to be.

In the past I have stopped to help when in the car to help another car that had run out of petrol. I took him to a Petrol station that was on the other side of the toll Bridge I had just come over. I then had to cross it a third time to get him back to his car and he never offered to pay the tolls. ...
