Off to wales on Thursday on the Africa Twin cant wait, going with 2 Africa Twins 2 Tiger 800s and 1 1200GS off to to Brecon, Elan Valley, Rhayader, Aberystwyth, Snowdonia Colwyn bay

didnt need anything to go with but still managed to buy a new pair of A41 Tyres, new Rukka Suite, new Sidi Adventure boots, new BMW Nav 6, new givi tanklock tank bag, and a panasonic TZ 200 camera !!

Resisted the temptation to go and get a new bike will wait now to see what the 2020 Africa Twin is all about if its not what im looking for ill get a 1250 GS in HP Colours
 
Enjoy yourself. A mate of mine was at the Pondorosa today and said he saw 3 traffic cars and 5 camera vans so unsurprisingly it looks like they are getting out in force this early in the season to try and limit the usual biker related accidents and antisocial riding
 
some great roads off the beaten track around snowdonia. Capel curig is nice ,the LLanberis pass a good ride over too enjoy
 
Stay off the A roads, and stick to the nadgery stuff ;)
 
Down in the area now, Llanbister for the Easter Break :thumb

Lovely neck o' the woods

:beerjug:
 
If you are going over the Denbigh moors (evo triangle) look out for the average speed cameras
 
Here now... had a great 160 miles yesterday, out again today. Doing the Evo triangle today, Bala triangle too, beddlegert and Llanberis... not seen one speed gun, but sticking to back roads...stunning weather and awesome roads too//uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/

Excellent trip although Saturday was a wash out, ive got to say the Africa Twin although i was a bit worried about taking it 2 up with full luggage performed effortlessly throughout the whole trip it never felt lacking power and the handling really surprised me I fitted some new A41s and have come back with no more than 8mm chicken strip on them it now looks like i can ride lol here's a couple of pics
