Thank you all for your support and compliments. For sure, I will have RRs in the future with this R1. In fact, the first ride is already planned for this Sunday, up into the mountains. Have a nice week ahead.

Thanks Hudson. Agreed. For a while, it was the coolest thing for me. But the friendships that resulted were even better. I still love the bike and would not hesitate to buy another one as a stablemate to my R1. I don't know when, if ever, I'll be back to the US. But if I do make it back, I...

Thanks for the compliment. And yes you are right, the wife is not too happy about the seating position on this bike. Also the noise from the pipes and wind. It is LOUD! I'm missing the windscreen already.

I did have a couple of rides, and even one through Spain in May. I just never came round to putting up the RRs. But at the same time, I have been quite busy over the past year with a new job so it's kind'a limited my riding. But yes, I shall post ride reports with this R1 when I get the...

Hi everyone. This is not a typical ride report. I'm not sure where to put this but I just wanted to share. I hope this is the right place for it. Mods, sorry if it's not. It's been a while since I posted here. I have sold my FJR. I thought it would be easy, but when the day came to hand...

Tyler, Awesome pictures!! :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: Those are some really nice roads. Love the reflections on the water and the vast open spaces (the pic with the colored benches on the open field). Thanks for sharing.

THE END OF AN EPIC ADVENTURE We left Monaco and took a short ride back to Nice where we went straight to the train station to drop off the bikes Our train would depart at 8pm. We had plenty of time to kill so we went for a final view of Nice - where the trip began just over a week ago...

Thanks all, for the kind words. Sorry for going missing over the weekend. Had some friends over from Adelaide, Australia and we went for a ride the last four days - about 750 miles in all. Anyway, back to the story. IMPERIA So after a short rest, the SO and I went for a walk-about before...

Hi guys. We are back on air :) GOODBYE PISA Woke up early and met this guy in front of the hotel Decided to take some last shots of PISA while waiting to breakfast with the others The obligatory tourist shot. Our visit to Pisa is complete! So we had breakfast.. and had a...

Fantastic RR! Unfortunate about the tip over - but still looked like a great trip. Thanks for sharing.

Just wanted to say - I'm a bit bogged down with work and at the moment :( Hope to continue this RR this weekend, maybe sooner if I get the chance. Sorry for the delay.

These architecture shots can get quite tricky you know. Silly people always get in the way... I think I have a few more of such shots.... buried amongst the 3,000 ++ shots I took on the trip.... ;)

Thanks Tyler. Over the years, photography has made me see things differently - I often look at something e.g. on my commute to work and think, wow, that would make a great picture. It has made me appreciate the beauty of everything around me, I try to capture that and share with my friends...

Awesome! looking forward to the next installment.

GOODBYE FANO. HELLO PISA. Morning came and the missus sampled the view from the balcony one last time before we left We got up a bit early this morning so decided to walk around the beach before breakfast It was not a sandy beach A bit cloudy today. Hope it doesn't rain. The guys...

Yup, PYT = pretty young thing. I believe Michael Jackson had a song with that title. Pretty catchy tune too..

REST DAY We were supposed to have a rest day in Fano... you know, take a break, do laundry, etc. Nah - let's leave the bags at the hotel and head up to San Marino! San Marino sat atop a hill. Only 30 minutes or so from Fano. It was pretty foggy up there... Part of the stone wall...

THE ADRIATIC CROSSING We got to Split with plenty of time to spare before we had to board the ferry. This was our ride as we approached Split.. Split is a big port city. Lots of private yachts.. and huge cruise liners... While Dave and Sandra sorted our boarding passes, we went for a...

LOL! Yeah, it's so front heavy now, it could tip over anytime. Actually, you'd be surprised how heavy the fridge magnets were. We bought a few at every stop. By the time we reached Pisa, we had to buy a small bag to put it all in...

I believe that would be Dave pretending to sew. He and Ian couldn't stop playing with the thing...
