Bikers' Banter

Montpellier to Ouistreham in one hit once when I got my return ferry times wrong .
That hurt !

Bandol to Troyes 450 miles. (2001)
I’d just got the ninja. This was my second trip out on it (south France)!!

Inverness to Uttoxeter 430 miles. (2018)
Fazer.
Could have just filled the tank up and gone back up, except that I was tired and hungry!
I was out on it again the next day

Same year (2018), I did a day trip to Consuegra to see the windmills. That was 450 miles. Stupid. It was v hot!
But they were stunning.

I’m really looking forward to doing Scotland again. I shall mile munch up there, then have a week touring.

We will have to plot a trip darn sarf.

Can someone organise the rain?

I did the Stirling to Yeovil trip and back again two days later.... and a French trip from Chalon Sur Saone to catch the ferry at Le Havre to portsmouth to Barnstaple in one go..... left at about 9 am and got home at 4am next morning frozen and Hyperthermic..... don't know the miles but it was a long time.

About 520 miles plus the Ferry Trip according to Google !

Had my planned Picos trip happened earler this year the first leg would have been circa 350 ish ish, add getting lost it may well have got to 400. Ah well we will never know due to the Chineese flu.

Anyone want to buy a Goldwing

The numbness in my right hand went away after a couple of days, as did posterior soreness. The last 150 miles on the Xmoto I would alternate standing, sitting way forward on the seat, then way back on the seat. Said seat is worse than the Comfy Chair, or being poked with pillows with the stuffing all up one end.
