...As far as going over to Ireland I really have no interest in that,...

... I do see this being pared down to England and Scotland, which suits me fine ...
Geez, that is not an insignificant change, boys. It is, in fact, ...a gamechanger.

I understand the difficulties Don, and thank you for doing the legwork.
Keep your chin up OM, may still find a way to work Eire into this. Went for a brief AM ride to clear my head and am giving consideration to there being an England and Scotland segment, followed by somewhat separate Republic/Ulster segment.

Lots more planning needs to be done, but gambit was always to rent bikes out of Raceways in London. May look at that still being the case for England and Scotland for seven riding days. Then we Micks and Paddies could leave the rotten Brit wankers on their sullen little island and the Hibernians could have a second segment that would start again for four days in Belfast.

From day 1 I've tried to plan this trip to be under $5K USD, so as many of our fine FJR Forum Friends could attend as possible.

Under $5K USD goal can still be achieved if the FJR Forum British Isles Tour can be broken down into two separate segments, depending on the individual riders wishes. For example, using yourself: If you had no desire to tour that soggy John Bull Rock, you could meet me in Ulster on the morning of the ninth day: We would pick up our machines from Irish Bike and be on our way. As you know, it is only a two hour train ride between Belfast City Hall Train Station and O'Connell Station in Dublin. We would party and sightsee in Dublin; Drogheda flight home! Oh and Old Michael, I do need a favor of ye! If SkooterG jumps in again blasting us for diverting OUR Thread; would you kindly kneecap him or car bomb him: Irish Style! Slainte, BeemerDonS

I will be picking up my new red R1200GS Adventure tomorrow (Friday, 12-11-09) from Iron Horse in Tucson. Now I don't have to just lurk. I will be riding it to Death Valley in Jan. So if not sooner, see some of you there. Hopefully fellow Deming GS owner Don Cameron will be recovered from his knee surgery and be able to join me.

I also have a 2008 FJR1300 that I love. Hope it doesn't get lonely.

https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?showtopic=124306 Welcome aboard Gregg and glad to hear that you are riding to Death Valley with us; any friend of GalaxyBlue is a friend of mine. A good way to meet the local FJR Riders is to join us on the Toys for Tots Ride this Saturday 12/19; the link is above. If you want to ride with me to the start point at GO-AZ BMW Motorcycles of Scottsdale, I will pull into Victory BMW of Chandler at 8:45am and look for you on your Buell 1125CR bike.
