    Normally, I ride a BMW G650GS (Single) and am in the process of slowly pimping it up for long trips across the state.

    As far as the postie bike challenge go’s I’ll keep Greg in the loop with some updates when I have coverage and I will also post my journal when I get back. Also planning a comprehensive video of highlights and hopefully not too many spills. But you never know with those skinny tyres!

    Take care all and I’ll keep you posted, excuse the pun.
