We have spent a week about 170 miles from the rally at Guimaraes. Weather now great so looking forward to getting the plug spanner Roy has packed for me. I brought the twin tool kit thinking it was more complete but the spanner is too tall to fit under the full size single tank. Tempting fate travelling with no plug spanner and three spare plugs!

We are now in Spain with 1100 miles so far, a long day today with just over 400 miles. Only 280 for tomorrow all bikes running just fine.

Clive, Roy gave me a big box of spares, clutch parts but no plug spanner!
But I do have a good set of tools on the van, including brazing!
See you there tomorrow, could have been there today but Hotel booked, so had to wait for the other drauves.

I forgot to add photo of the Tigers in the Hotel parking at Medina del Campo. The first night that they have been under cover!

Never mind Dudley if push came to shove I could lift the tank to use the plug spanner!
