The next two weekends are fully booked out on two wheels too, then I should be able to take things a bit easier!! Got a tyre change coming up this month or next. Tempted to stay with the Metzler 01 rather than try the Road 5, but you never know. Hope you're still enjoying your Road 5's.Geoff Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041523109817248619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341114511830074977.post-86703439097042289322018-03-08T09:46:42.341+13:002018-03-08T09:46:42.341+13:00What a week indeed.

A few years back, my brother in law had a big "off" and just about ripped one leg off his jeans!Geoff Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041523109817248619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341114511830074977.post-22232276267031592482018-03-03T04:26:56.230+13:002018-03-03T04:26:56.230+13:00Wow, for a retired man you packed a lot of activit...Wow, for a retired man you packed a lot of activities into a week. It looks like you had heaps of fun though.<br /><br />Glad you kept your leathers on for the luge. More scary than motorcycling I'd imagine.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing.

Non-retirement doesn't seem to slow your riding frequency down Andrew :-).<br /><br />It certainly was a varied and busy week - slept really well last night.<br /><br />You're right about the luge which is why a few of us did it in bike gear. No wipe-outs but it was pretty darned close on more than one occasion!

I'm looking forward to retirement (come on lotto) so I can get up to this sort of mischief!<br /><br />BTW: if you don't come away bleeding from the luge rides then you're not trying hard enough...Andrew Thomsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00716829007873864871noreply@blogger.com
