I have a new toy. For a long time me and my brother Ben have ridden motorbikes. We've been on some pretty interesting adventures around the continent (mostly off-road) and lots of riding around other foreign countries, such as Wales.

Ben had recently picked up a new bike to replace the Suzuki DRZ (we both sold them in 2006) and I couldn't resist joining him for some more legendary stupid adventures. 

And here it is;

It's a 2003 KTM EXC 525. It's a laugh and a half, both on the road and off. There's absolutely loads of low-down grunt and it makes a great noise too.

So the trials machine is for sale (see eBay shortly) has been sold. Looking forward to some riding between Christmas and New Year with some riding companions of old, too.
