I’ve been riding a few years and am now on a Himalayan. I don’t particularly care that it won’t do 170kph. It gets me where I want to go comfortably. While I have friends who like to ride fast, I’m happy with pootling along at the speed limit. I tend to do long days, and I still get there. :)

Totally do the ATGATT thing. Also, get as much training as you can. I try to get some training or coaching every year. The better the rider you are, the less chance you have of crashing.

Have fun on the 350. They’re a beautiful bike and sound awesome.

Himalayan. Goes everywhere I want it to, comfortably. It’s a fun bike.

I’m in danger!

Sending an email to a colleague in the states and being astounded that he replied instantaneously. 😳

Lots of news reports about this. I mean, there would be, given it plays to the west’s wish for problems within Russia.

Not sure if it’s posturing on Prigozhin’s part or an actual revolt against the Russian military. Time will tell.
