When I brought Monty (the Caterham) over I cruised down getting bored past Lille and Liege.
It was simple and dull.

The S2 (MonTwo) is coming soon so without getting carried away, are there any suggestions for a diversion / alternate route?
The main aim is to arrive!

Hi Minty,

I use Tyre to plot such routes.
This is what it suggests with basic 'Motorcycle' settings, avoiding M-Ways...

Righty ho.. I am not too sure how I will navigate but its food for thought.

Looks like I will fly in on Fri 14th and somehow get to you to collect him on Sat 15th. Cruise around Herts on Sat, hopefully meet up with his former owner and head home on Sunday.

Fingers crossed for decent weather.. I wonder if the tonneau fits!

Cheers

Well.. The weather could have been worse!
Had a misfire through France at higher revs(bad under load)
new HT leads from Elie Boon in Brussels didnt help and it cleared itself once in Germany.

Thinking electrics or valves? (Although I use additive now perhaps there is an emerging 'lead free ossue) As it was quite sudden missing probably not fuel/carburettor(?)

Any psychics out there want to hazzard a guess?

MonTwo is safely parked at home (in the draughty garage to dry him out!)
