Yeah great. The same photos you'd seen already of course and I'd thought by now a few others would post too. The video on the thread on ADV Rider was good though I don't think we appeared in that did we? That is this video:

Mate, I had to leave you to put your own photo up.

Seriously though I did miss it and like I said when we were there the crowd just made taking photos quite hard as someone was always standing in the way, funny that, but a success I'd say by the number that showed up.

Is that one of your fleet? Great to see the 230V outlets, you could plug anything into those - microwave, heater, TV, as well as that hair dryer lol

yip, it was originally done to power a heated jacket via 12 volts for a brass monkey in the late 80's, then i'd plug my rechargeable razor in and fascinate people, have grown a beard and don't go to the monkey any more so probably should remove it as it adds weight....
