I'm a skinny git and I can get my bike on the paddock stand! In fact it takes me longer to get the stand out the shed than it does to put the bike on it, lube the chain and take it off the stand.
Today's report from the continent: it's awesome!!
completely dry today, and the sun came out this afternoon. Some of the roads here are pure heaven... it you're a fan of constant radius, perfectly smooth corners that seem to last forever, you'll love it here!! I've been hanging off round most of them, giggling on the exit
oh yeah, and they're deserted!! Some roads I've seen 2 cars in 10 or 20 miles, if this was the UK I'd get stuck behind a 40mph dawdler every few miles, it's better than wales here for quality of roads. Not many pics as the scenery isn't stunning, although it's pretty damn nice. I've been recording though so you lot will get a video at some point
Cochem is a proper chocolate box pretty town, and it's cheap here, 2 nights camping for 23 euros.
