We are talking about going away again in the MoHo next week for a week.
Not confirmed so have to see how things transpire.

If it's pissing down wont come on the bike if it happens. So where will we meet if it is???????

If the meet was moved a few miles down the road to Carsington Water you could park here https://www.google.com/maps/place/Carsi ... -1.6319592 or here: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Carsi ... -1.6278005

Just watch out for the troll under the bridge.

Pigles......... I reckon It's way overdue for a Meet up......... I'd seriously love to meet you after all these years mate.

That would be a good crack, meet in the U S of A, hire them daft Hardleys and meet up. Or am i having a nightmare

A few place exist where you can rent a R 1200 GS.

Love the GS, however unless they supply a ladder to get on the thing no chance for me.............and deffo not for Snev

ha.... Yup, no chance at all..... How's your Trip going Bob ? We spent the day driving around yesterday.... getting very good at reversing and turning in tight spaces.

Back home yesterday afternoon. Fab. Loved it. Got a list of what we want (not need). Planning on another one next week.
Will post a couple of pics tomorrow as i have just got in off the bike. Promised myself if the weather was ok today i would go for a decent run on the bike. Ludlow (for Pork Pies) and back should have been bout 150/160 miles. Did just over 200. Bastards road closures but no diversion signs so no one knew which way to get around the obstruction. (turns out it was white lining the roads), so they had to throw the whole county into turmoil because H&S said so, effing ejits.
Sounds a contradiction but one can have a bit of fun on the Wing if you put it in "sport", shit mesen at times.
Still can't work out how to get the bitch on the Sat Nav to talk to me.................it has worked before but pressing buttons i lost it and cannot get it back, AND the "Go Home" address is programmed in but i can't find it. We wont talk about the radio.
BUT, having said that i like the bike, well the engine and tyres anyway. Electronics and tech you can stick where the sun don't shine. AND you can get at least 6 extra large Pork Pies in the side pannier thing

We're off again in the Morning, sandbanks and Studland..... love it especially with my two other favourite girls....... will be doing a solo to Cornwall next week.... might just sell all my Bikes !

You need something that will fit on a hitch mount carrier on the back of the motorhome. A MT-07 would be small enough to not be too much of a hazard to load and unload on one (I have put my F 800 GT on one, but used the engine to very carefully power it up the ramp).

Here is an expensive powered one that Bob could use to haul his Wing around: https://www.autoaccessoriesgarage.com/C ... le-Carrier

Haha. You would need one hell of a suspension set up on the back axle to take that load.
