My daughter and I (taking photo) on the way back from Le Mans

Le- Mans 740miles round trip Two up fully loaded to Le Mans. On return we left the same time as a BMW1200RS and a ZX9, both new with no luggage or pillion. We met three times on the way back when either us or them stopped for petrol or food and we arrived at the ferry 20 min before them, not bad for a bike over ten years old and it did not miss a beat.

*If you need something scanned I can do that for you too and even put a spell checker on the text and run it through an 'apostrophemeter'.
