A few pics of my 1800 miles in Europe over the last 10 days... In order as you look through as follows... At Ducati in Spa Francorchamps, Cochem castle, Looking down on Lac Annecy, row of our bikes in Megeve, cyclist near Argentierre nr Chamonix, heading home rain near Dijon and all clean, ready for the next trip.
Heres a few photos from our trip to Porto via Dune du Pilat and the Picos 3200 miles. Its a '14 Twin spark and is now 200 short of 20,000 mls, more reliable than I ever expected the little cutie has made two trips to Italy as well. There's one from the Bike in the rain the eagle eyed might be able to see 5 degrees an on the dash, not the best day, plus theres one 1900 metres up somewhere in Portugal. I didn't even know they had 1900 metres up in Portugal. PS has anyone had those electronic tolls follow them home from Portugal, asking for a friend.

A week camping around southern Ireland a week or so ago - with a Africa Twin and a 1190 for company . It was interesting to note that when we parked up , the most people coming over were chatting about the Honda ! some people have no taste
I’ve been knocking around here for a while, had some new tyres fitted today, so thought I’d go to a couple of my local favourite places and take some pictures.
Nice looking Mutley ! what tyres did you fit , cant quite see from the pics , been thinking of changing my road ones to a 50/50 , but worried it might handle like a bag of potatoes on the road . Over in Lincs here , not far from your patch . Ive done peaks on a enduro bike , but fancied trying it on my big bertha soon
Not sure if id take the Multi up all the ones we did - oh well its what crash bars are for i suppose ;-)
The tyres are Michelin Annakee Wilds, got them from Openeo on the interweb and had them fitted at a local tyre place. If I’m honest they’re a bit more knobbly than I expected, but I’m not expecting them to last very long and they do look the business. Handling is interesting, but I’ve not been far enough on them yet to form a definite opinion, watch this space...
Yes, it’s a Scorpion ADX-1 Battleflag. The ventilation isn’t up to the same standard as my Schuberth, but the front aperture is mahoosive compared to the E1 and probably because the cheek pads are new and firm my whistling seems to be enhanced, giving Roger Whitaker and Percy Edwards a run for their money.
Had to look Percy Edwards up lol - maybe best keep that visor shut to avoid scaring the locals haha . wonder how he would fared in these days of BGT ?
