philbo wrote:how much does it cost you to do it ron?
am tempted to do it in next couple of years
$6k with Get Routed ( includes return shipping, accommodation on IoM, and return ferry England - IoM ) + airfare ( $2k ) + expenses ( ie; accommodation, meals, booze etc. )
The expenses part I haven't totalled yet - but I was away for 12 weeks ...
You'll be without your bike for approx. 8 weeks before you go, and I'm not expecting mine back till the end of October ( doesn't ship till mid September ).
Just do it !!!!!
I've spent over 40 years of my life riding bikes .... the rest of it, I wasted ..
If it's got wheels or tits, it's gonna give you trouble !

Ron,
Was at the Ginger Hall 2 rooms down from you. Been a slack bastard and haven't done anything with my photo's yet. Should get together for a ride some Sunday. Andy
But the sidecar guys have huge cahoonas .... would you trust someone ( as driver or swinger ) to do that for 37 miles ?
