If you had the beer you really would have been snoozing and riding. <br /><br />Thanks for taking the time to blog about your trip.

Makes me wonder how people would go with that new huge touring bike Yamaha released in the States that weighs twice what mine does. Must fit new shoes every week on tour. Enjoyed the report, thanks Steve.

There are lots of big long boring bits between where the twisty bits are located. You could do several 1600km rides over 4 or 5 days long distance boy.....<br />The R1 now has over 26,000kms on it and coming up to June I will have had it for 3 years.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10160712689280276620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5119951275142904676.post-68509083387266587952018-04-03T16:36:37.038+10:002018-04-03T16:36:37.038+10:00What's this riding back the same way you came ...What's this riding back the same way you came down?
