If the weather is nice, I'm thinking of heading out to Aberystwyth (125 miles there)? It'll be nice to have a cuppa with Murray :thumbup:

What do y'all think?

Always a good option, what route you got in mind? When I go from my house I go via droitwitch, but there will be other options from Tamworth

No route in mind. Open to all ideas really. Straight across is 125 miles - Could have gone there and back on the beemer. Be lucky to get there on one tank on the "T" lol

We can always swap bikes, you ride the restricted devil bike and I'll risk life and limb on yours, so you don't have to :)
