That run looks bloody awesome Chris, I'd love to be doing some of that right now
I don't think I'm going to make it to France this year. We were going to ride the TET down to the Italian border, ferry was booked for next Saturday but I can't see it happening at all this year .
I had four bottles of Theakstons Old Peculier last night, first time I've drunk it for 35 years.
But more than often I drink cider.
I only drink at home nowadays and only on a saturday evening, I can't remember the last time I went to a pub just for a drink .
I have Mitas E-07's on my DR650 right now, they're a great summer tyre when you don't need something quite so 'nobby'. Mitas and Maxxis both make great tyres for trail/enduro/adeventure bikes.
I miss the Michelin T63, one of the best dual-sport tyres ever, I use Pirelli MT21 instead now. I don't consider either of these an 'enduro' tyre, as an enduro tyre on my CRF250 Rally I use Maxxis IT Pro.
62 years ago my in-laws moved to Britain to get married and start a new life for themselves, purely because in the small village they lived in Italy the two families hated each other ?
Well there's a mistake right away. Jeans are the worst thing you can wear in hot weather, no airflow. Get yourself a pair of dedicated riding trousers, my Klim Dakars have a vented, elasticated area around the crotch, no more betty's for me
