Go in Winter......deserted and atmospheric!
I used to live up there. Been there, done it. Last time it was a dinner do and was a lot of fun. Car abandoned and party train to Pwllheli.

Did the Dragon in 2010 and rode back with Ogri and his brother.
I won’t be attending again!

You ain't missed much! Sitting round in a muddy field in North Wales in Winter surrounded by a load of drunken twats is not exactly the stuff that dreams are made of Clive!
The only thing worth seeing up there is Portmeirion!
Portmeirion? Overpriced and overrated!

The GS 1250, ideal for everything.
R1300GS is lighter and a lot quicker by all accounts. All horribly expensive, and too heavy.

I think you'll need a Lottery win for that!
Strangely enough I had one last night. All of £30!

Aborted trip to Senegal was ok despite having only got as far as Marbella. Bloody heat waves! Loved Portugal and Galicia. A bit busy dahn saath though.
Can’t remember much about the summer. Bike change in mid August. Overland Event near Oxford and meeting Ted Simon again there was great despite costing a small fortune in beer.
Spent a few weeks caravaning in September, most of it hoping for aurora near John O Groats. Might do the same again in April.
Got the start of shingles some time in November and only now beginning to get over it.
Not the greatest year, but there have been worse.

We've got loads of BOTY submissions.....so why so few entries every month in BOTM?
Cos I haven’t been on the bike!! Only 1500 miles since mid August, and most of that was in the first month or so.

Better post this as my last photo. Better than the other one of the bike but I prefer the view in the other photo.

How the hell did you add ground where there was no ground?

I did manage to drag myself out for a bit yesterday. Only stop other than fuel.

I believe that none of us is a professional photographer, but I think that many pictures could be much better if you put just a little more effort on the framing.
@Pedro your picture was good but could be better if you just gave more "breathing space" to the bike... (I couldn't stop myself so here is your picture "corrected").
I just added a bit more ground on the bottom.

I'd take it seriously if Neevesy had done the test......not somebody who's only been riding 4 fucking years and never had an adventure bike!
He did the first MCN review if I remember correctly. Raved about it - in a positive way.

Weather's going to be pretty decent here......sunny and 15c.
Not that that makes any difference to me though as I'm still grounded.
What you lot got planned?
Still grounded. Shingles still winning.

I get the bike ready for a trip up North Wales, the weather turns shitier and find out that the bad guts that I’ve been suffering is bloody shingles. I’m slightly pissed off.

He went around the globe on a GXSR a while back, pre beard, and is now doing a series of vlogs of it being reconditioned. Ex cop in the protection lot.
