Can you tell that to my stomach then! Apparently no matter what colour your wearing 8 Satay sticks and a packet of hot chips still make you look rather fat!

I just have to say that I'm not a motorcycling legend on my own. Carrying around this sort of ego takes a crew of dedicated professionals in a tightly co-ordinated operation.

I wouldn't have got to the RAID without generosity of Triumph NZ who kindly let me loose on their Scrambler demo for the weekend.

What a great bike it is! I loved it. Have posted a report with pics on ADV rider:

Also to Kerry at motohaus and the people at Dold industries who lent me the Ventura Rack which Kerry fitted at a moment's notice. It's just well made NZ stuff that works and Mr K Davidson is a champion bloke.

So from me and all the team - I love youse all.

I walked upstairs at AMPS once and Robert said:

Bloody hell Dave, it puts my drinking shirt to shame. Actually, I should thank you because when I show it to Mrs B, she'll probably come round to thinking that mine is sorta ok and stop trying to sneak it out of my cupboard
