The Wandering XRV....

Having taken part in the charity motorcycle event "Enduro Africa 2008" and having read and enjoyed so many books on Adventure Motorcycling - I thought I needed to get out and do it.... I have now ridden in France, Spain, Andorra, Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Czechia, Portugal, Slovenia, Slovakia, Croatia, Morocco, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, Montenegro, Serbia, Bosnia, Albania, USA and Nepal.

Mendip Moto Madness March 14


The week saw the start of the “gatherings” with the March Moto Madness event at Fernhill Farm near Cheddar.   Organised by Tiffany Coates and the attendance was small but still good fun.  Although the rain on the Friday night may have put off some of the less hardy riders.  Whilst the camp site was reasonably full with about 20 attendees, we did have the use of a room in the barn and that had some facilities, notably a wood burning stove and a kettle.   On Saturday morning there was a Breakfast and road ride-out and later Gabe Bolton lead an off-road ride-out.

On the Saturday night half the campers sat around a camp fire and partook on copious amounts of Cider and a few bottle of Jim Beam (so I am told).  

The Sunday had glorious sunshine and an early start for me lead to a very long, sedate and pleasurable ride home….

 

A good weekend all in all
