we've done 3 trips into Wales in January,each over 200 miles.Very cold and the bikes were covered in crud and salt.Somehow the Tiger looks good when it's filthy,although obviously road salt needs washing off before it eats the bike.At least it gives an excuse to spend hours in a cold garage in the week nights - better than watching TV.

We got out TOGETHER! This is not easy with 3 kids but the youngest went to a party, the second yougest gate crashed said party and the oldest is old enough to be left.

Well what else do you do on an early spring day when the roads are dry.

One red daytona 955i and one silver tiger headed up the coast and back down again. Frolics were only interrupted by the party pick up time - like Cinderella only in reverse.
