Believe it or not this is the first training trip that all three of us have started together and got home together not bad eh.I hope we haven't peaked too soon.
We off, on a bright Friday afternoon.Oxford and the Cotswolds in our sights.We must have had great eyes to see that far as the M25 was awful.Just over two hours to get out to the A40.We had hoped to make the site in daylight but that was not to be.So I was left with the task of putting my super doper Dakar tent for the first time in the dark. Not good.I say not good but it was still there with me in it the next morning still with a whole pole and 12 pegs unused, who cares. Its about time I introduced my fellow companions.Paul Hracovec, the guy who had this idea in the first place, is Dealer Principle at BMW in Croydon.He is my all but next door neighbour who I have know though Golf and shooting for many years.Andy Self owns Arnold and Self the removal company also in Croydon.Our sons went to the same schools and I meet Andy as a parent helper on a trip and we have been best friends ever since.All of us have had motorcycles since our mopeds at 16.We have one more training weekend.It is a big one as we are going off road, doing bike maintenance, first aid and navigation.What chance do we have?I will let you know how we get on.
