Just waiting to collect new Tenere WR beginning of Jan. been riding bikes for over 50 years but never tried an ADV, hoping to to a fair bit of touring next year, and I want to tackle some of the easy tracks in the alps/pyreneese. Did some mx a lifetime ago so I’m signing up for one of yamaha’s off road experiences. Really need to learn the slow speed stuff. Somtimes I think I’m mad at nearly 67, but then its either do it now or never. Hope to get to some UK rallies next year, hopefully meet new friends and new riding buddies.
