No concrete plans as yet but im fairly sure it will happen. Other than that I'll be off on my solo canps hither and dither with some open water swimming and some trail running involved. Also plan to go on some ride outs with a couple of groups on facebook. Im looking forward to getting a new to me bike or even a new new bike depending on my claim. I have a beady eye on the F750 gs but we will see. Why a Beemer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to see one at honda blackpool but on the way home we stopped at BMW just for a nosey. The F750 gs te worked out cheaper and has way more about it. It has the look back factor unlike the Honda. In all fairness though i need to ride them first. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t get cash? All the Croatians, and Portuguese, get very surprised you ask for plastic to pay for a coffee in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't take much cash with us as we were expecting to use our credit card like we do everywhere else had to visit a bank to get some out. The locals said they had some big bust up with the government during covid where they were asked to go cashless and they all got stitched up so stopped using plastic to stick it to the man sort of thing apparently. And we were in Split not some one horse town. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
