Moderator drewpy Posted July 26, 2017 Moderator Posted July 26, 2017 this is the bit where I start thinking if I have done enough prep for the Spanish trip next week. I have lists and I know I've asked peeps about what to take. Just seen the news last night and Spain and Italy are in a drought although I have a friend in Pamplona ATM and she says its raining! so I'm excited and a little worried at the same time. Still wouldn't swap it for the world. I just got to keep the missus sweet as its our 25th wedding anniversary when I'm away too 1
finnerz89 Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 I know the feeling mate, but you have to remember that virtually anything you forget you can get abroad! 1
Tommy xs Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 Me too bound to forget something, more worried about the bike holding out tbh but can't wait. Also need to finish job I'm on or I won't have any spends lol
finnerz89 Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 You'll be fine tommo! If my aprilia with 70k on it managed an average of 190 miles a day your bike can!
Tommy xs Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 I know its capable its just cos not had it long and although I've done a few things to it, not really had it to bits yet so keep thinking there could be something I haven't thought of that I should have done.

Maybe 10 hours ago, slice said: Good luck lad's take plenty of photos and stay safe..! Thanks Slice I always start out with the intension of taking loads of pics but get wrapped in the experience and forget or just can't be bothered faffing around with gadgits but then I always regret it when I get home, luckily Drew always takes a few pics but I have invested in a camera so we'll see how that goes.
Tommy xs Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 Well we've made it on the ferry ok but Drew has a screw sticking out of his back tyre so first thing we need to do is sort that out when we land which is tomorrow about 130pm All the southern softies went to bed hours ago but me & Drew are propping up bar we're about turn in though as don't want to miss brekky 3
Tommy xs Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 Same thing tonight me & Drew left in the bar and the ss have gone back to the hotel best holiday ever though, brilliant roads apart from the ones you have to pay for, looking forward to tomorrow just hope I don't have a hangover.
slice Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Well done lads, pissing down here and very windy hope your getting nice dry runs.
slice Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 Looking at the weather it looks like your going to be HOT ! in the 40 degrees out there, your going to be riding in a thong and flip flops..!
