Got any old photos of tours, old or recent? Dig them out and lets see them! Forums need lots of pics. Here’s a few of mine that bring back memories of fine rides.

Norwegian mountain top hairpin. Le Mans 3. 2010. On the way to Nordkapp.


Fog on the Nullarbor. Early morning on the 90 Mile Straight, Norge 8V. 2013. Its a long trip from west to east in Oz. 4000ks. A 4 day trip on the Norge, which really munches the miles. I’d set off in darkness from Balladonia that morning, There were roos everywhere, and huge pockets of fog. Had to ride really slow. Later in the day, when the fog cleared, a very fast ride. 


Top of the World Highway, Alaska, LM4. 1988. Dreadful dirt road, but astounding views for miles.


Col de l’Iseran, France. 1987. LM4. Le Mans country, in its element in the Alps. 2 up, lots of luggage.

Great photos. Here's a quick couple, at the French/Italian border on the way to live in Pisa, 1992, and second, stopping at the factory gates briefly on my way to Rome, 1994. The days when I was free to wander..

I have a picture of me at that very spot, on 35mm, so can't post as I don't have a scanner.
It was bloody freezing.

It was coming back from the Bol d'Or. Spent a week doing the passes, without the summer traffic.

Signposts make good pics. Even when it was bloody freezing.



Or even when it was bloody hot!
