Just One More Mile - Initial Planning

This week has been a pretty quiet one, with not much to report on the preparations for any of our trips. In fact, the only thing to report is that I've bought a BMW low seat for the Adventure from ebay, so we'll see if that makes the bike less intimidating. That, and I've temporarily fitted a spare Autocom intercom to the Adventure so I can hear my ipod when I go to Ireland at the weekend. Only trouble is, I've left the suppression lead for the GPS attached to my other GS, so won't be able to hear the directions through the Autocom (as it buzzes too much without it).

This week is already shaping up to be even quieter, as Tracy and Carlie are in Egypt for the week - hopefully she'll update her own blog so you can read all about it!

On Friday I'll be heading to my mate Colin's when he'll probably dump all his camping gear in my panniers so he can ride his Aprilia Mille R un-encumbered by gear...and then it's off via Holyhead to Dublin on Saturday to start the week's drinking, sorry, riding as we tour Ireland and head up to catch the NW200 the following weekend... you'll read all about it here in a couple of weeks (when I've recovered!)...
