Welcome Theoj to the most modern and up to date forum in the whole wide world.

Keep us posted on your travels. What are the nine countries you have seen so far?

Hallo Theoj... Welcome to the R3 site. From one side of the world to the other... This owners site never sleeps!! Mind you... Jamie is only pretending to be the dedicated R3 owner, cause I have it on authority he frequents Daytona sites quite often and occaisionally he try's to sell the virtues of his "other" bike here on this forum!!

Hello guys, you are rather fast with welcoming new people, that gives a good feeling for a start.

The countries I travelled so far with the rocket, Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Switserland, Austria, Liechtenstein (nor really a countrie) and Italy. This was a five day trip.

Plan for next week is a 6000km plus ride through belgium, Luxembourg, France, Spain, Portugal and back through France and belgium.

Few weeks later we leave for England to go to lands end.

So we manage quite some km all together. My rocket has run 18000 km now in just about one year.

That's not using it in the wintertime, because of the habit of salting the roads downhere when temp goes subzero.

Then I'll have to use the Kawasaki or the Honda.

Pictures of trips will become available after I have retreived them from my previous "crashed" computer. Seems to be a bit more difficult as expected. that's where the computer wizz comes in.
