The A483 is a stunning road and will be part of the route down, thinking around spring time.

Both you and Doff both landed in the same puddle! Not sure where I landed, I had my eyes closed but I'm definitely a contender. The last thing I remember seeing was 90 on the speedo!

Itchy still holds it for height though, and gets extra points for exiting his bike mid flight (lol) (lol) (lol)

Sounds good to me. It would probably require an over night stay down there some where. 8)

Yep, definitely a two day trip. I’ve got a really good B&B in mind, plus an excellent local biker guide.

Hey guys, I took my bike out again today and it was a more of a dry day than last time I went out. I really love the handling on the Z900 just as I used to love the handling on my ZX10 years ago.

It really is a wonderful bike. Its powerfull, good size for me, nice and light, comfortable.

Well done to Kawasaki. :-)
