I remember the Vercors national park, we spent a fortnight caving and canyoning there. We used Villard-de-Lans as our base. The area is just stunning and some of the hairy roads with sheer drops must be brilliant on a Laverda.

Been there a few times on a Laverda.
Some of the roads are closed now.

Beautiful winter morn, needed to clear the head, so jumped on the big Orange (suck it boys, Moto Laverda chose the colour:p)
Hmmm, use the AE for long rides and the Jota for short blats, it'll last forever - looks like the desire to sell is pretty much gone, perhaps cross out plan a.....

Many years since I have been on Hwy 20 through Washington State.....a great road..... I want to do the trip through northern Montana - Idaho - Washington states again..hopefully soon.

Very ironic you are on your Executive. Back 30 years ago or so I was on a trip with several others on hwy 20. Somewhere west of Winthrop one of the guys on his RGS with the Excec bags lost one of the bags on the highway. I guess he didnt lock it in properly. Anyway he rode back for a few hours and by luck found it on the side of the road. Eventually I ended up buying the Exec bags from him. They are on my Corsa today.

Ha ha, I actually took 3 photos there trying to get something interesting passing on the highway. When I got home was quite pleased to see an old Orange tractor on the back of the truck.......(didn't think a caravan would cut it - no doubt you aren't pleased to see them in numbers on the road at the moment:eek:)

Ha! Great lost-and-found story. ‘Can’t remember how many times, retracing my path, crawling along the ditch, hoping upon hope to locate that lost part only to have lost the day…
Truth be told, “Tick” the RGS, is not actually one of the illustrious Execs, but merely a US spec RGS with the accessory bags.

I quit my job a few weeks ago Peter.

I’m taking a holiday break for a while, while I reassess life.

Ah right, (If it was mentioned on here I would have missed it as I haven't been on for a fair while)
So caravans aren't the bane of your existence at the moment (they are out in plague proportions up here right now....)
Reassessment hey - Contemplation is best done while riding a motorcycle out bush;)
