Restricted But Not Out
When I heard I was getting the Kawasaki Er-6n as a hire bike while my Karma was getting repaired I was both excited and disappointed. Part of me was hoping for something like a Honda Deauville as my routine would go unaffected with its built in luggage, I know, sounds like a strange hope but…

Castles, Tombs and Open Roads
Today the summer touring season began with a quick Sunday tour around some local sights, namely Trim Castle and Newgrange, both in County Meath, Ireland. My current ride is still the Kawasaki ER-6N hire bike while I await my ER-6F to be returned to me. So to start with I should point out that the…

KD Returns
After 3 appearances in 2007 between the pages of MCN (January 23rd) I return once again in 2008 with hopefully my first of many. You should find me in the letters (or Inbox) pages with a comment along the lines of my previous posting on ‘uncrashable’ motorcycles. Though I have been edited slightly the meaning…

See You When I Get There
Passport and tickets in hand I am setting off to the 2007 NEC Motorcycle & Scooter Show in Birmingham, UK. The camera is packed too so there should be plenty of pictures on my Flickr page by the weekend for all of you to enjoy. Right time to go! Keep the rubber side down.
