A quick summery of the trip.
A good time was had by all with no trauma or mishaps. If you check the 5th photo you can just make out the forward controls on Dave's bike, this was his first big trip since he started riding again and to say he was impressive would be an understatement. Good weather and good company,as an added bonus we had Saturday night round Amsterdam and got to watch the European Cup final on Sunday in a nice bar once again in Dam. Here are a few pic's of Dave's modifications http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...oto-0004-5.jpg

Dave, I don't know what to say except keep doing what you are doing. You are an inspiration to all us bike riders mate. Rock ON and live long. Macca.

Had a mate years ago that had lost his left arm so only had to deal with the clutch with his prosthetic arm. Dealing with all the controls on the left would take a bit of getting used to.

Thanks for checkin out photo's lads and i could go on about Dave for ages but i'll not bore ya to much. I will say his bike is still being modded , were look to get a decent screen and seat on it. Another problem he has is at speed because of the angle of right leg his foot has a tendency to blow of the footpeg at about 120mph ! Some kind of cowl to deflect the wind is in order, not quite sure how yet but we'll get there. Our next trip is to Cock O The North Road Races at Scarborough (i'm guessing you'll know that one Spiral) this coming weekend.
Once again thanks for your time and i'll try keep you guy's posted on Dave's progress. Bucko

Never been, must make it to em some day. I was going to the Skerries road races but the rain here friday and yesterday morning put a dampner on that plan.

. Not to worry I'll find another day out on my bike. Thats for sure.
