the ducks done more miles on a scooter than your modern day scooterist...

every time you enter a tunnel like this you just wonder if there's a JCB waiting at the other end!!..

this was the first time I had ever pitched a tent alone anywhere on mainland Europe...I didn't get much sleep...I've seen too many of those American horror movies...

I'm gonna take a guess it isn't far after 04:00...I really didn't get any sleep...

I had something to eat in there last night...I went in with a handful of change asking if this would buy me a Pizza...making it look like I wasn't worth robbing!!..

I love this shot...Ostende ferry port...the guy's on the AJS's could not believe it when I told them where I had been......

finally home...

I had to have the sidepanels re-powder coated as the pannier bags had badly scuffed them...

Bec pleased to see me after 8 days away...

one of two lads from Manchester took this picture...I haven't seen them since this day day but they came across my web site and mailed me this picture...probably taken sometime during the Saturday!!..
