Hi Bobbie hope your enjoying yourself,
Don't worry about the bearings that's normal,You would be supprised how hot the wheel bearings on your car get,It's just that you can't see the wheel bearings on your car,Out of site out of mined,

Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip.

Cheers Hunter!

Having a great time so far, offloaded the trike to park it up as I'm at my daughters for a long weekend and got on of the tie downs stuck so I've bought another today as I'm going to cut that one off, lesson learned as to where not put it but it's a minor detail!
It's really not bad on the motorway at 50 once you get used to being overtaken by lorries instead of overtaking them, quite restful in fact as long as I have the radio on to stop me falling asleep.

This is Lucy, BikerGran's daughter with a quick update.

BG left here (Southport) after a lovely weekend (and mostly obliging weather). She's done a fairly straightforward 180 miles or so today and is currently in a hotel somewhere a bit south of Glasgow.

She said to say she's looking forward to seeing someone....but I've forgotten the name, so hope you know who you are!
