We all had a fantastic weekend at the Heritage Sprint event, and we hope you did too! A big thank you to everyone who stopped by our stand and had a chat with us. Special shout outs to:

Amy and Josh for bringing the cooler pack with those much-needed daily refreshments.

Pete & Les from the Honda NT 650/700 V Deauville Owners Group UK

We even had a chance to wander about and watch some ‘shiny’ things race down the course!

And finally, a huge congratulations to our competition winners—T-shirts are on their way to you! Thanks again to everyone for making it such a memorable event.

We look forward to seeing some of you on Ride Outs soon!

Until the next time … Stay safe, enjoy your ride, and have fun!

Tyrolean Tuesday

Stupid Instagram limiting you to just 10 pics. Trying to shortlist for this post was nigh on impossible but we think we've picked some of the best! A personal favourite of ours is pic number 4 where our team was having some breakfast with some local friends we hadn't met yet.

It's been one hell of an epic Ride Out!

"Marjorie Cottle (1900–1987) was an English works supported motorcycle trials rider. She was one of Britain's best-known motorcyclists in the 1920s and 1930s. She competed regularly in reliability trials and was considered to be one of the best riders in the country – male or female. Her greatest success was the International Six Days Trial of 1927, in which the British Ladies' Team won the International Silver Vase. That year the trial was held in the Lake District, and attracted a large number of competitors. She was described as the "most famous girl rider in the world"

Tonight we sit in our overnight accommodation looking forward to a rest day and a wander around Innsbruck tomorrow.
Today though, was a riding day, full of twists and turns and ups and downs - mountain roads, of course!! Brilliant roads, brilliant scenery, brilliant riding, brilliant company and brilliant places to have pit stops. Here are just some of the pics taken by my resident back seat photographer!

Interesting how, when you ignore scammer's scare tactics through messenger, they attempt to intimidate you by commenting on your posts - ain't nobody got time to play silly games or click spurious links, so chill now or go get a respectable job, or not, who cares??!!
