    Hi all, first bike after years of wanting to get it done is a Triumph, passed my DAS with Pappilion up here in Didsbury near Manchester (they were great, highly recommended). Bike is a Tiger 800 XC (2014). Loving it so far. Had some advice pre-purchase from this forum too, so thanks for that. Looking to do Germany, Scotland and the Pyrenees next year with veteran riding father.

    Hi and Welcome, looks like you're going to have a busy time of it, I went to the Pyrenees this year, absolutely stunning roads and mostly empty!
