Long way down

johnb5177 · 09-06-2017, 21:08

Hi guys,
Well after 300 miles+/-, down in Roses, NE Spain.
T2 ran like a dream on the peage at 70/80 mph using 3/4 full tank with 2T involved.
Handled terrifying hairlpin bends on 'interesting' coastal road......really well, nothing quite like hauling 2 tons+/- around arse clenching bends.....
Here for 4 days.......seafood diet and cervesas please......

The correct tool for the job helps

wouldn't have been so pleasurable stirring a bowl of soup, er I mean changing gear a gazillion times.

Hope you're taking plenty of photos

But sadly no winch behind it.......
