Not put off by the weather me and my 2012 RT travelled from Barrow to Bolton and back to take in a cracking Wanderers game on Boxing Day followed by a chilly trip to Glasgow and back on the 27th returning on the 29th. Rain lashed down on the Bolton trip and the journey back from Scotland was cold and foggy punctuated by some lovely sunshine over the Beattocks. Not too many bikes about which is probably a feature of my sanity but absolutely loved it. Heated grips, seat and jacket served me well and now looking forward to onset of spring - ever the optimist! The RT is a fantastic tourer and I couldn't conceive doing the same trips on any other bike. Anybody else as daft as me?

Ive had some great rides over the last two weeks. Been lucky here in the SE dry just cold. Even managed 130 miles on my Ducati Multistrada to get a fresh tank on fuel in her. Must admit it made the RT even more enjoyable beats the Ducati for weather protection. The RT is a joy to ride.
