Re: Captain Sisko - RBLR 1,000miles in 24hrs
Thanks Nick. It's an impressive thing to do, although I'm not sure it's for me. I think my concentration could deteriorate over such a long period.
Good luck with your adventure. Let me know when your sponsorship link goes live and I'll contribute.

Captain Sisko - RBLR 1,000miles in 24hrs
Hi Nick, I noticed on your bike that you've done this at least at once before, and I see in another thread you're planning to do it again...Made me wonder if your name should actually be Captain 'Psycho'! Seriously though - 1,000 miles in 24 hours is quite some achievement. Where do you ride to cove...

Re: What did you do today?
Nice work SimonD.
It’s on my To Do list. How did you get the springs on and off?

Re: Ride UK to Spain/Portugal (and back!!)
Glad you had a good trip.
I’ve not heard many good things about the newer Nav. Think I’ll stick with my Nav 5

Re: South West & South Wales Area
“Friends Over Forecasts” - I’d rather ride with friends in the rain, than on my own in the sunshine.
That said, I don’t pay much attention to the forecast. Good job really or I might have missed out on a superb group ride.

Re: South West & South Wales Area
The 2nd night banter continued over a glass or two of red wine at a cheeky little Italian! Great weekend chaps.
Captain Sisko did a cracking job of leading our ride today. Inspired confidence and kept us all well within the speed limits - thanks very much Nick.

Magnificant scenery, gated roads and bloodbike stories are all a certainty.
Looking forward to it already. Cheers Dave

Re: South West & South Wales Area
Great to meet Captain Sisko, who kindly led us around the roads of Wales. Despite looking like rain, we had a completely dry day of riding.
Time for a few more beers at the hotel before dinner in town.
That’s the 2024 UK RT meet up, almost done.

Re: South West & South Wales Area
I had a completely dry ride into Abergavenny.
Just found a nice welcoming pub whilst waiting for the others to arrive safely.
