A lot of it is not passable with an RV. (I guess that won’t stop a few trying!)

I’ve finally bought a satnav for the bike.
Need a child to show me how to use it!

Also bought some throw over panniers. Jess and I can both travel light, but 8 days away will call for more than 2 T-shirt’s !

Headsets have arrived 🙃

Never had them before, so should be interesting. Look easy enough to fit.

Tuesday afternoon will be fettling - oil change, and fitting satnav, trying panniers for size and fit.
(I know July is a long way off, but one has to be prepared 😄)

Satnav hard wired, all neat and tidy.
Oil changed

Headset fitted

Short test ride. Connects perfectly. BUT FECK ME IT’S LOUD
Couldn’t turn it down!

Had to come home and re-read the instructions 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Turns out I was doing the right thing to turn it down, but not enough!

Are you back home now?
