That's an offer I can't resist. No fridge on a bike.

Not yet...

Been working on it. I went to Wales the other week. I vac packed some food, froze it, put it in a Thermos bag with one ice pack and two days later it was still partially frozen. It was warm outside too. The silver panniers seem to really stay cold inside. I was at the bike show this weekend and I had a pot of cream for my coffee that stayed fresh in all that heat. So a small electric cool box might just work a treat.

[Chris]

Loads of empty spaces now
Lots of people have gone home
Im up in the top field where the access road leads down through the trees
Wheres everyone
Ill come and visit

 

[KriPa]

I am currently visiting the show.

My 80 is if you continue straight where the camp entrance is, so not take the entrance but continue
Then on your right after the carwash you take the first right.
Then just after the shower left into the forest.
At the end of the forest left. There you should spot my 80 with a large green awning/shelter at the back of it.

Just got home. 1500 miles. Stayed in a Château last night. Total luxury. Well I think we'd earned it. Worst driving anywhere on the whole trip? M1 North to Jnt 29. Lane hogging, texting, slow driving, lane switching and undertaking ...Four blocked lanes and few enough cars to fill one lane. Shocking. Bike were utterly brilliant. 50 mpg all the way and never saw a spanner.

Like the link - some fantastic looking trucks and interesting builds. Think I may have to start planning to attend next year.

What bikes were you using Chris?

 

[Chris]

I was on my Triumph Explorer 1200 and L was on his BMW GS thing.
