Hello everyone
After 5 years out of the saddle (5 years on Harleys before that) I've just bought my first BMW: 1200GS.
My 110 mile per day commute from Bagshot to Stevenage is getting stupid
Not only is there roadworks on the M3 making the beginning of my journey a pain, but there is now 10 miles of contraflow/road widening on the M25 north of the M40, and the Hatfield Tunnel on the A1M is about to be contraflowed as well!
There's only one way to avoid holdups like that: 2 wheels
I'm used to a big fat Harley, so hopefully the GS won't feel too wide when I'm filtering for mile after mile. I'll let you know!
I pick the bike up on Saturday, or before if I'm lucky. Meanwhile I'll be reading every thread for useful stuff before I start posting dumb questions.
