Hi Mark, I started by taking my youngest on short trips(5 or 10 miles)to build her confidence two or three trips,the last trip was about 100miles with 3 stops,as for advice get a pillion pal(belt with handles) it's easier for small hands to hold on to than trying to hold on to your jacket,tell your son to sit close up to you and keep his body in line with yours,he can always look sideways as he probably won't see much ahead,as for you take it easy and be very alert(more than usual if you can be).Stay relaxed,you will feel any movement a pillion will make it's nothing to worry about, just be aware it will feel a bit strange for a while,your son and wife will love it,be safe mate hope this helps, Cheers Andy. .P.S make sure your kid has the right gear on,everthing zipped,velcrowed and tied before you leave then he won't have to try and sort it himself on the move

Hi folks,gave in on Sunday to the begging from my youngest daughter(10) to take her for a run,she had been on all my bikes before but never very far so we headed for Peeble's,the weather was crap but she thought it was great and we got the biggest chocolate eclair I've ever seen from a bakery in Kilcadzow(took 4 to finish it),think she's a future biker

Last time I pulled I ended up married with 3 kids(17 years today)could have killed and been out quicker So no thanks

I'm not as pretty as the bike or the scenery Maybe take the wife with me next time!!!

The bike's cool but the castle's f**kin freezing

My latest project

Try the A701 as well mate,very fast sweepers

Hi mate,that's the road from St mary's loch to Moffat,cool eh!!!!

No probs mate,should be around the bandit stand, cheers Andy

Hi folks,don't know if it's a classic???But it got me round Scotland at the September weekend

Hi drewpy,I'll be there with my suzuki on the bandit stand,never been before but have been told it's a good show

Here's another one for the people from the cities

That's the falls of Dochart mate,good place to see the salmon leaping as well as mad men with camera's

Nice pics Tomo,glad you had a good time,maybe meet up next time, P.S. Were you in the falls of Dochart when you took the picture??

That's a bit Xtreme!!!!!

Todays run was 170 miles around the borders,dry roads for a change and had them all to myself Look!!(I know it's a bandit my other bikes a Tenere,sorry)

As above,but the further ahead you can read the road the better you can take the twisties,try and be smooth with sustained speed and not so on and off with the throttle and brakes(the further you lean the less you can brake),it'll make you more relaxed and controlled which in turn will make you faster and safer,enjoy practising I do(for the past 25 years),keep it rubber side down, Andy

Hi Amanda,never managed to meet Tomo,had to go into work today maybe next time.He got good weather for his trip though so he should have had a good day(better than mine anyway)I'm off to Dumfries tomorrow,hope the weather is as good,maybe get some pics, cheers Andy
