I've packed my suitcase so I know I can get all my motorcycle gear (except the helmet) plus my clothes etc into one suitcase for the trip. Now desparately finishing up the last of my time sensitive reports for work before I jump on a plane on Thursday night NZ time.
I arrive at Bernard's place Sunday night, and on Monday he and I are going for a ride. It will be my first ride since buying the XL600V last October. Since buying it, a new chain and sprockets, crash bars, hand guards and new tyres have been fitted. Trying out the TCK70 tyres.
The bike - (before the new tyres being fitted)

All set to ride. See you all soon...
I´m still sitting in front of my screen. Why should I brake off early. There are only 350 km between me and VCIM.
Greetings from the South of Germany
Rainer alias meine dicke
The Kiwi, me and my Bro Hendrik (the one on the big Truimph) will depart next week Thursday. Its even closer than for Rainer... 280km one way
And MrKiwi is now at Auckland airport heading to the UK via Hong Kong. Had some ticket hiccups, but after 4 hours and several attempts managed to change flights and sort out the gremlins in my travel arrangements. Will spend two nights in the UK then head to the Netherlands.
Still at home... leaving Tuesday or Wednesday...
Packing is finished.
Leaving Oslo in 3 hours with the ferry.
We look forward to start with 3 days with Weissbier und Schweinehaxe in sunny Berlin.
See you soon.
Drive carefully, everybody
Leaving Moscow right now.
see you soon
I have reached Patras in Greece in order to have a ferry to Venice, yesterday Friday and there I was told that due to a strike with the shipping company's no ferry till next Wednesday. Now I am in a camping near Patras and considering doing the earth road to Winterberg. Any suggestions

Is it just the ferry to Venice that's on strike ? Are any ferries to Ancona running.
Ancona to Venice is only 4-5 hours by road.
I was told not ferries what so ever leaves Greece
I think the land route 2600 kms is too much for me
From Split ( Croatia) to Ancona you have ferries, but have to go there, or south Italy from Greece . I try to check. Keep courage and we see U soon Jack .
If you arrive in Trieste, quietly the same road as from Venezia
