Which route you taking Gary?

It looks like the long (two ferry) route that I investigated a couple of years ago, it's a bleedin' long way and the UK Ferry to Stavanger option was no longer available.

But if you get this weather, what a week??

Have a good trip mate.

It will be fantastic Gary, and the norwegian guys and chicks are fantastic as the lanscape.
BTW, Ralf will be there.
Wish I was with you.

getting nervous now, not sure which bike to take, can't remember if I have used my H1A for a long run since the TT...when the oil gauge clogged and it nipped up... :(

I've certainly not stripped it



my H2 isn't geared for cruising, it has the equivalent of a 14 tooth sprocket on the front

saying that it did get to 115 miles before it hit reserve...

I think I'll just take my h1a and my break down card 8)

oh and my tomtom

Enjoy. 8)

It'll be well more than 800 miles one way Luke. I've driven it overland in one hit several times, London to Copenhagen and that is about 800 alone. That was quite enough and in a car to boot. It was easier on the trips I stopped of at Leo's on the way. Of course, if I was RB it would just be an afternoons casual mosey.
