Re: BMW 1000XR

It's great that manufacturers are finally realising most people who made the switch from sports bikes to adventure bikes only did it because they wanted the riding position and never intended to leave the tarmac (though many did, got hooked, and went and bought smaller bikes for that job). +1 they ...

Re: Declaring medications

there are no border "crossings" any more, often the only thing that says youre in a different country is your GPS or the road signs suddenly change colour. so dont worry about it, same as here the chances of even seeing a cop are quite slim let alone being stopped by one, you might get loo...

Re: Throw up tent.

ive got a quechua pop up tent that has lasted years, theres nothing wrong with it and its double skinned. it moves around a lot in a strong wind and it is tricky to put away, but not that hard it just takes practice. the biggest problem with it is the size and shape of it when packed.

Re: Aldi action cam

Its a bit "fisheyed" if you look at the video clip, but its better than being too narrow like the old mobile phone I've been using. I might give it a punt for £30, good find. Heavy, is there a tripod mount thread in the bottom? mine had all fittings and screw thread in base helmet fitting...

Re: Is There a Professional Manufacturer of the Small Trailer Towed by a Motorcycle
