PHILinFRANCE

Gotta admit at a combined weight of over 300kg I was a tad apprehensive but I'm a tad nuts so went in full guns and the great white lump just gobbled up mud , rocks , logs , massive ruts and long gravel climbs. Before this little bimble I was seriously thinking of chopping it in for a CF450MT, but not now , just need to fettle a few thing like the suspension and the gear shifter, needs a flexible tip. Before and after

Cheers its a Desert Sled 800

I'll add a load of pics here and give a review at the end

Dressed and packed the big white lump and left last Wednesday in 33c hot sun

It had to happen, I bought this Ducati "Scrambler " a couple of years back and honestly love it , done some light green lanes but the time came to do it proper !!! I'm lucky enough to live within spitting distance of the Pyrenees and plenty of TET routes. Home is the blue spot and I planned on a anti clockwise route round Toulouse

OK if this isn't allowed I'm sorry . . . We are stopping using Airbnb they charge way to much commission !!!! . . . But we are still open to folk , weather it's on bikes road or rough, camper or tent couples or groups...all on a cash basis, the Shack sleeps 5 in a double and a triple both ensuite, fitted kitchen and TV lounge and pool for €100 per night S/C. I can come up with prices for campers/tents on arrival. We're 10km from the Dordogne river , the roads are to die for , there's loads to see or just chill by the pool. Give us a shout if interested PiF

Will do

Little test run before I take it to the Pyrenees

Don't think the link works...soz

My vote goes to the one leg wonder

Bloody great for my old eyes

Yes it's this one they have on a AJP DMD2

Keep toying with buying th CF450MT but took the old girl out today, she's been neglected because of the Sled and T100 , not started for months, anyway 2nd spin and she fired up , we've been together now for 15 years or more and she still makes me grin like a twat.......so the the CF450MT is low on the list again.....not all trails are well used

I don't deserve more

I was just trolling through old pics ...OK I'll do a lickle story, which would you prefer Bosnia or Trans Pyrennean

All of it ....its an age thing

Smashing Bob , we called in to the tank museum yesterday and got in the que to pay ......then I saw the price £23 each so turned round and got a scoop of ice cream for £3.50 ........how the hell do afford to live here. Beach was free though and got a Brucie Bonus, 3 lots of Fish and chips for 21p
