Just back from Britian! Yesterday exactly 777KM from the hotel in Greenwich to my home. In one rush. That was nearly overdone, in cause two points. At first waiting two hours for the ferry, at second I want to explore a new route. From Begium to Germany the A60 via Prüm. A60? Great, it's around the corner, the map shows me: finish in 2019, the satnav knows it also.
In the late evening: the satnav: follow the route. But: no route... Only small B-roads. It went dark, the screen full of killed flies in the Eifel. If someone knows about "The Ring", he knows what I mean. But it's done.
The days before: day 1) 300KMs from my home to the Mosel, a little bit travelling around, parttime the hod down.
Day2) fast way to the ferry and Britain, Motorway, hod up to Canterbury. 500KMs, not enough for a day, so let's drive to the sea (Herne Bay) for a beer.
Day3) have a look in at BHM and MotoLita and than to Hambledown. The stag and the huntsman is not only a nice pub, they've got a good meal and great rooms. On the way I miss the right way and the satnav shows me a realy bad new one. Two times the Mog hits the ground. Again about 300KM.
Day4) A day in the factory
Day5) around in the Cotswolds, hod down and a great day with a lot of miles anjoy the MOG and the landscape, I think about 250KM again.
Day6) from the Cotswolds to the Chilterns not the straight way, hod down and a mix of B-roads and small B-roads. On this way I "submarined" the Mog FULLY!!! (that' s a own story) and spotted a few miles later a shiny white MOG in the area of Amersham. Kilometres, don't know...
Day7) from the Chilterns again to BHM for the service and a respray for the wing and one week mogless in London.
Summary: my wife is happy with the size of the luggagebay, the comfort and if I drive with a light foot also with the sound and the fueleconomy.

Next time out? Not far away ;-)
