    Got the Diversion sorted out with road tax and insurance so took her out tonight for a "get to know you" ride.

    went from Alloa to Lochearnhead (check it on google maps) 70 miles and used both sides of the tyres.

    Stoped at this monument to Sir David Stirling and thought it would be an idea to get photos of the bikes at monuments and famous places we have visited. So here is my first one.

    By the way any one know what David Stirling was famous for? (no googling or wikapidia)

    Long range desert group, I think that was the pre-curser of the SAS.
