Strange but true ! Three intrepid explorers set out from Greater Mancunia on our first incontinence tour, that is if you exclude the 09 and 2010 trips to Eireans Green Isle, although that doesnt count as incontinence as I am Irish.

Anyways... had to go by the EuroBurrow as Eustace wasnt happy with the ferry, t'would ruin his hair he said AND he had just got his new (to him) bike from Southport SuperGS's

You will notice that neither I nor Sir Eust. are long in the and his nice new (to him) GS had lwoered suspension, low seat and Electronic Suspension Adjustment. More about that later .... Oh and to make it lighter and to help it handle better and to assit in cold weather, i.e. to keep him warmer than otherwise it had a special dealer fit option of "No Feckin Oil". It smelled "great" as a consequence. You will remember that the bike was "new" (to him, that is) having come straight from Southport SuperGS's the week before.
 
Anyway at Sandbach Sir Eust (once voted the most handsome Man in Cumbria and Lancashire, but its was once and it was a while back) noticed the special weight relieving mod : the lack of enginme oil, on his bike with lowered suspension, low seat and ESA (wait til later! ) Incidentally Sir Eust the handsome had been advised, at least thats what he says, to avoid using the ESA until he had got "eust" to the bike. On adding weight, a.k.a. 10:40 and hooking up with Lawn Mower Man we set off, renewed, so to speak.

Fffff FAst blast down to the M6 toll, where upon breakfast was consumed (at the services you'll understand) and bollocks offered and received. Usual high praise for Gs's and some curious comments about the lawn mower.

Sir Eust offered an alternative (read very much longer) route option via teh M25 south and in order not to hurt his feelings, lawnmower man and I agreed on the basis taht teh lawnmower needs refuelled and blades sharpening every 100 miles or so and as Sir Eust knows London like the back of someone elses hand, he led the way.
