I've got tickets for that ^ for me and the Mrs. Anyone else going?
It's going to be the first time I take the Mrs (or anyone else for that matter) as pillion. Does anyone have any advice? We're going to drop the kit off in the car and then ride up together on the bike, so it'll just be us on the bike, instead of a full touring load! Lol. Between the two of us, it'll be just short of 200kg, any recommendations on suspension settings? With just me (98kg) 3 has been comfortable, would 6 do for two of us, or all the way to 7? Other than that, obviously I'll be taking it easy.
As a side note, do you reckon there's been enough rain yet to clear most of the salt from the roads? I had the bike treated in November was advised to water wash only to preserve the coating. I'm absolutely itching to get stuck in with some bike shampoo and polish, but don't want to expose the bike to salt unnecessarily. Maybe I'll leave it another month.
Cheers,
Ian
