    Hello!
    I am learning to ride, in Switzerland (I am from the UK)... and my (learning!) bike is a 2007 Speed Triple.
    Looking forward to the adventure!
    I post photos on instagram; follow me there if you are interested! :)

    Love the bike...

    Welcome to the Asylum you should fit right in.
    It's a long way to go to learn to ride could you not get into any riding schools in England:p

    Welcome, I love the environment you get to ride through. I have greenhouses, a lot of grass and cows for a view.

    Hi and welcome. Great write-up. I loved riding all those passes. Pretty brave to take them on as a "learner rider"...
