All that pressure from the Long Distance and Adventure riders finally overcame my prejudices, misgivings and sense of taste - I bought a BMW...
 |
| Panniers by Touratech... |
 |
| May need an aftermarket seat for the LD stuff... |
 |
| Yes, it is weird BMW face ugly... |
So hopefully this one will prove to be economical and reliable...
Actually it was a pretty neat way to kill 4 hours or so on a crappy day and I just wish they made a Tenere or Connie...
And now for a brief puppy update...someone is doing a great job of converting her tucker into more dog and is also making a reasonable attempt at learning the rules of the house. Still no sidecar on the horizon though...

| Taken a split second before the paparazzi came under attack... |
 |
| Yes, that is nose smudge on the camera lens... |
I bet you could put a sidecar on that BMW…
ReplyDeleteWell, someone with better skills than me could...if it didn't come in the box then I doubt I could work it out...
DeleteHahaha - love it! Do they do a KTM? I made some Tamiya models years ago - a real exercise in mot losing my temper!!
ReplyDeleteYour pup is gorgeous! I presume you're getting plenty of after-work exercise now :-)
The KTM ones are even more expensive and unreliable...
DeleteDamn, you must be the 2nd one who reckons she's gorgeous - the other day a woman ran past us and yelled out "gorgeous", I just assumed...
And by smudge on the camera lens did you mean nose print? She is a cute puppy.
ReplyDeleteNice little BMW. Do they have farkle kits for it? BMW stands for Buy More Widgets doesn't ti? Or was that Bring My Wallet?
Yep, smudge/nose print.
DeleteI'd say that the farkle market for the BMW would be unlimited thanks to a new player in the field - Lego...
A little pupkiss on the lens, always good for a smile.
ReplyDeleteOr so she thinks...
DeleteAndrew, at arm's length w/o my glasses it looks just like the ones I ride with!!
ReplyDeleteI must have put it together properly then...
