Kildare

Took a few back roads on the way back.. Back roads were surprizingly quiet for a bank holiday last night...

Stopped for a pee break near the Curragh..Forgot how good the roads are around there.... Let's hope this weather keeps..

Nice pics Padge, looks like your enjoyin it. How ya gettin on with yours Tom,have you made the right move?


Hi Paul,

yah i am impressed.She was only loosening up when the battery died.I have'nt had a chance to ride it since.Kids these day are so demanding!!!
Actually thats the only pita,not being able to get out as often as i would like.
When are you back on yours?
 
Finally have the parts priced, at least, and I believe sourced, so hopefully given the approval of the insurance company 1-2 weeks. we'll get a meet together then.

What about an Irish 12ADV forum :idea, looks like we'd get enough votes :D :eyebrow
 
Going good.. Still getting used to her.. This was the first time in about 2000km I actually got to stretch the legs a bit and hit some twisties..Still not quite used to the steering.. Turns in much "sharper" on fast sweeping bends.. But still havn't as much confidence on roundabouts as the 1150..

Just have to get out and rack up the miles..If this weather holds it'll be Sligo this weekend and Ballymena the following.

Jayzus.. Enough people think us Adventure owners are pretentious feckers without forming our own Judean People's Front...
