wanting to take your Christmas cash.

busy one! Enjoy!
PICK OF THE YEAR
THAT’S A WRAP!
Each year we get to ride a lot of
new bikes and ride a lot of roads
NEWS
and picking our favourite bike or
thing from the year can be a hard
one. The Bear will usually go with
whatever he’s bought and his latest
SXUFKDVH KDV EHHQ WKH 5R\DO (QÀHOG
Himalayan, but Ralph and Stuart are
a little more unpredictable in their
pick. Ralph said he would have to
take the KTM 1290 Superduke R
as he would have the biggest smile
for the longest time riding it and for
Stuart, he has gone not for a bike
but rather a destination – riding the
BMW R 1200 GS Rallye X to Cape
York was a big highlight for the year.
It’s a must do!WHERE TO LOOK
