The Germans have invaded....

...with a little help from the Americans!

If you look closely this is me heading southwest for 1.4miles down an unpaved road in the middle of Salisbury Plain. For those of you who don't know this is the main training area for the British Army. Not a great place to be riding a German motorbike! But thanks to Garmin (programmed by the Americans!) I ended up on this road.

It was great. The surface deteriorated and there were puddles all way across the road. So there was only one way to deal with it. Stand up on pegs and go for it. Bike coped well on the Metzeler road/touring tyre. They are groved, but only just.

Couple of other unpaved roads and will attempt to upload sat nav log and plot some more routes across the plain. Shelling permitting of course!
