Anyone taped it and want to continue to tape it for me?
We've been out of our house since September as we've taken the top floor off

Fucking brilliant builder also!!!

Aye, fuckin' excellent stuff. I must admit I can really feel their
despair on those, erm, Mongolian roads.

it's not like either of you works for a living".

Top stuff though.

No question. As much as anything else I should imagine picking up an RGS
Beemer after about the 3rd time is *seriously* knackering.

Oh yes, and having a K100 I know they are heavy, but with all that kit
too, that must be so heavy.

I did, til I downloaded and watched the first episode, and saw how
much grief they'd been through before they even left.

Nah, fuck it, I'm still jealous. But I wouldn't do the whole trip,
not in a million years. Next spring's French Run will be my first
effort, ffs!
