    Not sure, she's going to be tough to replace. Feeling a bit nostalgic at the mo. Going to test ride a BMWg650 SM tomorrow although I do need to be able to put my feet down first as it's really tall

    Hello people!

    Twinkletoes is now happily up in Scotland, making her predecessor the GPZ look very small!!

    First bit of the ride up was highly eventful with a closed M5 gridlocking Bristol (destination for the night) and leading us onto (literally onto) a nasty icy steep back road Helped up by kind strangers and no damage done except a broken hand guard (hadn't realised how much difference they make till you take one, and only one, away!!)

    Next day was better and we ate up the miles north with no worries whatsoever! Though it took a while to scrub off all the muck yesterday...

    So now it's a few months pootling round Edinburgh & the north before heading off round Europe in April. Pics have been promised and will be delivered!

    Laura

    Well done, Laura.
    Glad you enjoyed the journey even though the weather was Cr4p.
    Oh and welcome to the forum.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE
