Hey Steve. What can I say? I cannot believe that I never saw this entire thread before today??? What an utterly fantastic report
You're right - it's worked wonders for me, re-living all this, and makes me realise what a great group of friends you all are. It's very humbling to think so many wanted to join me on the trip, and I am just so pleased that so many of you did.
It was an honour and a pleasure organising this and riding with you, and it's made me see that there are indeed better things in life to enjoy
I have a very poor broadband connection (620kb ) but I'll see if I can upload some pics over the next few days.
If all goes well in my life, I'll organise something for next year. Not out of the woods yet, but I can see a couple of camp fires in the distance
Thanks, everyone.
Mark
Hope things work out for you Mark.
A cracking time was had by all and that was down to you!
