VStrom 650 parked next to me
« on: August 06, 2019, 21:20:22 »
Last week I was in Wales for a 2 days blast. On Monday I stopped at  Hay on Wye for lunch. There were no bike spaces in the car park so parked in a bay next to the tickes machine and had to pay! When I came back a 08 Vstrom 650 had parked next to mine ( on the right). I liked the pouch and water bottle on the engine bars.

Chris, we must have just missed each other. It was a cracking day for a ride. I was at the Bikers campsite the night before and rode through the Elan Valley, along the A44, A481, B4547 & A470 before Hay-on-Wye. Then the ride back home to Torquay.
I've been to Wales for quite a few years now and have only had it rain less than a handful of days.
