I just travelled 700km from Reykjavik to Seyðisfjörður, in Iceland. Took the boat at Seyðisfjörður and then 150km in Denmark. Iceland this time of the year was a bit cold, around 5C, but it was fun. Here is one photo, with the town Seyðisfjörður below.

That's a nice shot Druzli.  I'd like to see more.  Sorry about modifying your photo, but I couldn't resist.



I was literally just about to edit this lol. Beat me to it!

Lovely day here today - snows almost gone!  Couldn't resist getting the bike ready and out for a ride.  Put the battery back in and it started right up.

I hope this is motivation for you. I've owned/ridden a lot of bikes in my life but this one is my favorite. I'm totally down for a gathering of SOHC's. Lemmey know..!

Nice bike, It's a really great looking set up.  I know you don't need my approval but if your gonna run a moto-style helmet you gotta fix your goggle strap!  Any guy that rides moto would call you a goon if you ran your goggle strap hanging that low on your helmet.  haha,  just playing!

here's what I run:

recent trip with my buddy to Charleston and back. only a 4 hour round trip ride but we took 10 hours. got lost a few times, ended up on a beach accidentally, rode through Francis Marion National Forest as well, bought some peach and blackberry cider. then made it back to Savannah and picked up some ladies and headed southeast out to Richmond Hill to the waterways that lead to the ocean, went to my favorite private desolate dock, took in the views, had some dinner. Was a great all day trip!

Rode a few or seven hours today. Stopped by the beach and some parks, a local lighthouse, stopped by a few friends houses, got so caught up in the ride with the perfect weather I took very few pics. Here's a few of the highlights….
