So you didn't go for the Peugeot Speedflight 50 then? Now that would have been funny!

While the Speedflight may have been an option, I would have preferred the 996 I was offered a loan of, if I was going to subject myself and pillion to 1000 miles of agony.

There is a guy here at work though who rode a Vesper from India to Italy with his girlfriend as pillion.............. madness.

Normandy here we come! First trip to the continent on a bike I have to admit. Shame it can't be my Ducati. Nevermind.

I've now collected the bike and Oh my God. It's like riding a barge and I am the Captain. Toot! Toot!
