Ahoyhoy blogs muffins,
I hope you are all well. Sorry for being so tardy at updating. Thank heavens the ever reliable and wonderful partner Sam will be keeping you updated as the trip happens.
To be fair there hasn't been a great amount of developments since we last spoke.
The trip starts on Monday 30th January at the Magpas offices in St. Ives, Cambridgeshire but before that we are having a leaving party night out at the Peterborough Greyhound stadium on the Friday, the 27th - do come, it will only be £1 to get in and should be a super night. Any and all support will be very gratefully recieved.
The off road training with Chris of 'Ride any Road' is two thirds of the way through and is briliant so far. Sir Humphrey has kissed the mud probably a dozen times but hasn't got a scratch or a bend to show for it. I am very reassured he is the one for me.
I would like to take a moment to thanks the Inland Revenue for not even being able to calculate PAYE contributions / tax codes correctly meaning that they have dropped and £3k tax bill in my lap two months before departure!
Sam and I went to Motorcycle Live at the NEC this year and were both a little astounded that adventure motorcycle travel god Sam Manicom knew who I was already! How does that happen? He was kind enough to donate a book for the charity auction - good bloke.
Also at the NEC the great folks and Beowulf exhausts gave us a new pair of cans for cost price and the excellent St. Ives based Starcom - the only bike com system, continue to supply us with bits and pieces.
Many thanks to everyone how is helping and all two of you for following the build up to the trip's antics and I would love to meet you both at the leaving party and again at the charity ball on my return.
TTFN,
Tigger
