I'm back!

[doglegdon]

Got back home yesterday after an epic, solo, mini adventure, (lots of piccies and report to follow when I get organised!)
Had an absolute ball, what a bike and what a trip! Had a couple of low points, but mainly a great experience that I'll cherish for the rest of my life.
I think it was here, someone said previously, that the Adventure 990 was the type of bike that Mr Honda should have modelled a modern day Africa Twin after.
I totally agree, performance was awesome, even with full luggage, over 1600kms in 3 1/2 days, at least 200kms of which were off road in utterly sh*t surface and weather conditions. Learnt an awful lot about the bike and myself (at least, my ability!), "magic"!

Here's a taster or two! : -

Road side help.
Up in the clouds.
A bridge too far?
Road kill. (KTM 1 Philippine wildlife 0)
Road to Banaue rice terraces.
A clear & present danger.
The way home.
Home at last with 'elder sister'.
Cheers!

Don looks great, and after being to Thailand I have the utmost respect for anyone who can ride and survive on those roads. I had my eyes closed most of the times and gave up trying to work out the rules of the road.
