Day 1 - Hanoi to 'Dream' Mo Waterfall "It's all gone a bit pear shaped..." http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll7/firestorm_996/NB3/Day%201/Day%201.png Ok. Tricky write-up this one, because this is one day when it all went a fair bit pear-shaped and to be honest one that we would all rath...

Well, we're all now back from Nambusters 3, and what a trip it was. It's fair to say that NB3 most definitely did not go to plan, but that's adventure biking for you! We had our fair share of challenges along the way, but more of that in the next post... http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll7/firest...

Just to update this, we fly out a week on Friday. Getting super excited now! Photos and blog update in due course...

I used to have one of those all in one waterproof suits, which were very effective but I always seem to pull a muscle struggling into the damn things. Plus I hate getting too hot and those suits are a guaranteed way of overheating. I ditched mine (actually it fell out of the bungee net on the A14 wh...

Got PR3's on my storm. They're getting on a bit now, been on at least two years and have been around Europe plus done lots of commuting and motorway miles. Probably got about 9k on them at a guess. The only wet weather slide I remember having is when they were reasonably new, rounding an autobahn sl...

Sorry I missed this, a belated happy 70th to you Roger!

Look forward to your ride updates and pics I'm currently reading 'A Short Ride in the Jungle: the Ho Chi Minh Trail by Motorcycle' by a young lady who did it on a pink C90 http://www.theitinerant.co.uk/adventures/the-ho-chi-mission/ I read that book a while back. Quite entertaining. Fair do's to he...

I fitted some a couple of months back, no drag on the brakes at all and the fit & adjustment is superb. I pressure-bled my front brakes while I was at it and the difference was huge. Being cheap and chinese I half expected them to be made of mild cheddar, but I have to say the build quality is f...

Hi all Thought I would post up a link to the trip blog for our upcoming return to Vietnam. Somewhat unbelievably, my missus is letting me go there for a THIRD time! Continuing the saga from Nambusters II, we will be starting in Hanoi again and heading generally west to the Laos border, before workin...
