Thursday evening around seven o'clock and the scooter is all packed and ready for the off...

Friday morning four o'clock and I've still to put the destinations in the TomTom Rider...

VW on drive...scooter for scooter rally...sarcasm...

with just a few hours sleep it's finally time to get going...

no fuel light on yet...

113 miles covered in just under 2 hours at an average speed of 58 mph...

it was actually 113.6...

scooter still pretty clean...in other words "no rain yet"...

as you can see from the shit on the exhaust we had rain...no queues here...makes a change...

just a few bikes today...

let's get this tub under way...

had to shed my thermals here...I was melting away...

still over 100 mile to go...

just short of my destination and the heavens opened...thunder and lightening...I needed fuel so I dived for cover...

I waited here for about twenty minutes...
