Re: Mad Cow's A to Z Challenge

So that's pretty much all the low hanging fruit collected :laugh: Although I have realised that I don't have to ride 20 miles to Whipsnade Zoo as Woburn Safari Park is only 10 miles from home (thumbs) There's a Dam fairly close to work at Sywell reservoir but it remains to be seen if I can get the b...

Re: The perfect compromise ADV bike

I have a standard Honda CB500X and I have ridden the Rally Raid Products demonstrator. It would tick most of the boxes, happily cruises at motorway speeds, I know as that's what I do almost everyday on mine. 70-80mpg is achievable with a range of 250 miles, 110mph is achievable should you want to ta...

Re: Oxford heated grips

You can buy R&G grips individually, might be possible to "mix and match" http://www.rg-racing.com/browseType/grips/ From memory (I fitted some Oxford grips to my ex wife's bike a few years ago) the connectors are very similar if not the same (I have R&Gs on my CB500X, much nicer th...

Re: The A-Z Challenge

I seem to recall in Portugal last year we actually rode on tracks on Serra da Estrela (leading to wind turbines) and how close to a border do you have to be? That's Spain in the background 12801452_10153627322572982_3478951015442128979_n.jpg And there's a dam in this picture, it's not that obvious d...

Re: Mad Cow's A to Z Challenge

Well I'm half way there already 13 out of 26 and quite impressed how easy it has been. Luckily I have a choice of four or five different routes for my daily 29 mile commute and I've been lucky enough to pick up all 13 with minimal deviation. 5 have been directly on my commuting route(s) 1 was only 2...

A - Airfield

Cranfield Airport, a tricky one to get as all decent views of the airfield are blocked by all the Cranfield University buildings around it!
