This is especially for my BMW dealers: For Alan Jefferies' BMW at Shipley

Dear Richard and all at Alan Jefferies', ( and anybody else who wants to look....it's not private!)

I hope that you will enjoy seeing some pictures of my trip with my new bike.  If you want to use them at all you are welcome but they are probably not good enough for any sort of commercial use!
Setting off on July 10th from Earby
They are all just dotted about but there is a label under them which tells you where it was taken.
With my wife, Ann,who spent two weeks riding with me,
on top of the Vrsic Pass in Slovenia....Brilliant ride on
 cobbled hairpins!
( Not so sure she enjoyed it all as much as I did!)

So, all you guys, I hope you enjoy the pictures so far.  Off to Pecs and Lake Balaton and then Budapest while here in Hungary, and then move on to Slovakia, The Czech Republic, Poland, Berlin and Holland and back home about the 25th September.

Best wishes, Doc
