Greta to read your report and that you are loving her as much (or more i guess) than I. Yeah, she likes a wee lie down in dodgy gravel from my experience too!. Bloody astounding the council are coming to the party. Good camera skills there. Hope to ride with you one day if/when i get a bike.

Fwoar, that sounded like fun. You have to love those big bandits, you can tour them, wheelie them and ride them (if you so wish) like a complete bogun and all with ease. And of course there is that characteristic power delivery that can ba all so alluring.
Nice write up Sandra, thanks.

Hey Sandra - awesome write up. I am green with envy for the lovely long blat, something I need to pull finger and do on the SV, timing has been a little off though. Bike looks good all loaded up. Super dooper too to hear of the response from the council...very good!

hmmmmm thinking cabins & camping grounds ... just the ideal destination to plot .. but somewhere where it does not take all day to get to but to have a damn decent ride (I dunna like stopping these days)
