"Classic" Adventure

Post by tetley »

The first proper trip on our TR6c's. Kielder Forest Drive heading up to Selkirk, via St Mary's Loch, fantastic route. Both bikes created by my great friend on the left.

Tetley, you can't leave us hanging like this, tell us more. More about the bikes, the build, the ride. More and more I'm thinking about something classic but useable as my first big bike.

I'm never going to do the Dakar, nor ride the Panamanian highway, I like a bit of a potter on gentle green lanes with plenty of time for a coffee, a ciggie and a chat to the people I meet. I just feel I might well have more fun on a bike like yours than some gizmo covered new thing.
