Conquer your fears

It'll seem a bit tame after the Ural.

 

It's still fucking cold there.

 

There is no cold. There's only inadequate equipment.

 

Are you still flogging that dead horse?

 

Accompanied by the sound of a chisel on slate Pikey

Ah, now the extreme beer consumption of 8 days in the Czech Rep. has worn
off I sort of see that it's a bike only type thing.


The winch [1] could be useful as well.


[1] that ain't my winch in the picture..

I respectfully disagree with you. Having lived in the eifel for 4 years
and having all the required kit, I say it was fucking cold and I don't
want to be that cold anymore.

 

It might get a bit tedious if it was four years, but actually it'll just be
a long weekend.

 

I hope you have fun.

 

So you don't think my £10 Asda tent will be ok?

 

£10? You were overcharged.

 

<pats heated clothing> ;o)

 

Hmm WUN has a Notrun and so http://wasp-motorcycles.tripod.com/id1.html

 

A lovely polite alternative to: "YES, IT'S FUCKING FREEZING, ****!!!"

 

-40 C, with a 40-knot katabatic wind. In a hut rather than a tent,
tho'... Somewhere upland of here:

I'll be there. Shite old bikes, long distances and alcohol with added
fire what's not to like?

 

Right, what I would like. What I would really really like is a removable
lightweight Cargo Sidecar which would fit the R100RS Mono.

Beer, genny, beer, firewood, BBQ, beer, large tent, beer, 4 season bags,
beer

Has to free or very cheap mind and someone has to know how to fit/set up.
I've had off road tyres on an R100 before.

In fact I like the idea of something so QD you load it up, head to your
chosen camping destination with a kitchen sink, pitch camp and take it off
for solo use.

Heh I suppose it would be indecent to have a SOB with full luggage AND a
Gixxer Thou on board )
