At start: 18800 miles.
Rode to Hammonds to buy a waterproof suit. Then onto Bristol for the mantoux test (bcg). Called in on old pal Roger Daynes in Tetbury for a quick chat (http://www.snowsled.com/).
Covered 90 miles today - a lot of which in the pouring rain. The suit is waterproof thankfully. The cold bits are my boots and the helmet (no visor).
The bike is averaging 102 miles per gallon. So with 4 litres is has a range of only 90 miles - there is NO reserve! I need to fix this ASAP.

Adventure Riding on a Honda C90
What's this trip all about then?
In Jan 2008 a group of UK volunteers are riding seven Honda C90s and driving two 4x4 pick-ups to Bansang Hospital and the Alexander Edwards Clinic in The Gambia.

I am one of the riders for this venture; a trip that will involve a 4000 mile journey over 4 weeks.
We will donate the 4x4s, the scooters (Honda C90’s) and any other supplies & spares to the charities for use by their doctors, nurses and outreach personnel. The Honda C90s are a form of transport widely used there due their reliability and low running costs.
