    Blah I need some advice on carrying a spare tyre

    HA ... so I was stuffing with the luggage build again today, setting out and bumming round getting stuff sorted, luvin it!!.

    So I had a good idea that I could carry Ellen's luggage and a spare tyre without hitting my head

    Just can't think how to tie the tyre on

    Nice mate, everything but the kitchen sink! yeah right! Nice, but you must have some spare time to do this rather than adventure planning. We don't want to miss anything, so document it, pronto..

    Gezz... the kitchen sink .. knew I would forget something

    Actually it is all (mostly) documented, the build, the progress to date etc, got cards, stickers etc coming too.

    Go to our site www.twomotokiwis.com and have a skunk around, haven't put too many threads here on cos I don't wonna bore everyone to tears.

    I need to name my bike tho, Ellen has named hers "Chiwi" being a Chinese Kiwi, me being a tight dutchie ...... my options are open.

    Too much time on your hands I see.... Shouldn't you be working?
    I've spent my money on bikes, booze and babes. The rest I've wasted....
