[BurtieBoy]

On our recent Cotswolds Ride Out, Wee Ewan thought it was time to introduce the GS650 to a water crossing!

Good on you Ewan - I admire your get up and go, especially for someone who's only been riding for 5 weeks.

We'll go out again soon.

Lol thanks Burtie

Kin ell. Was he going for a speed record?

 

[BurtieBoy]

No, but I have some video of both Ross and Sieve68 who were going for a speed record - I'll see if I can get it posted later on.

Nice attack good pace and style but why did you turn right up that little bit?

Seriously though - well done if you are going for it like that after only 5 weeks!

I'm not sure, my wheel hit a rock or something, it felt like i was thrown to the right. there was big rocks at the bottom. it also got a little deeper at that point,and maybe the mass of the water moved me to the right?

Shame really! Think taking a swim happens to most at some point. Just unlucky you were being filmed

 

[Canuck]

HAha... as they say 'Ride it like you stole it!' So where did you get your bike

Anyone wish the video was longer so we could see wee ewan get up?
