Flog to Nog...

Ok, I was hoping to have a some carefully planned images of our south west ride but in the rush to get ready I forget to pack a card for the camera...doh. So here are a few iPhone snaps which capture the spirit of the ride. I ended up taking the black Street Tracker from the shop which revelled on the dusty roads but was 500cc too small for the long stretches of bitumen. All is good though as I felt like I was going 180 trying to keep up with Smithy on the 1100 GS who was cruising. A mate said to me after the ride he has bikes which go faster in 2nd than my chosen stead for the weekend. Well maybe so, but I felt like I was at Bonneville for 8hrs.
