MC Collection, Sweden

We stopped by at the MC Collection outside of Stockholm during our trip, they currently have Britten no3 on display and we didn't want to miss the opportunity to see it in the flesh. It didn't disappoint and the rest of the collection was much better than we expected so I can only recommend a visit if you have the chance. Will post a bunch of Britten pics in a separate post soon and also their boardtracker collection which was brilliant! (Couldn't manage to make a good cut of pictures so here's almost all of the ones we took)

 

 

But suddenly, disaster... WTF!!  \( > < )/

The Norway trip...

...got cancelled due to really crappy weather and we decided to stay in sweden instead, riding east, away from the rain. Shame, we've kind of seen Sweden before... but we'll do the fjords some other time, had a great time anyway and we found some pretty decent roads (also a lot of not so fantastic gravel roads...(fun on the beemer, but hard for the rest, someone should really update the maps to give you a hint of what's what!)). Mine and Olas bmw didn't want to come home with us unfortunately and we had to leave it with a horrible sounding clutch problem, it's back home now, but will need some love to get back in shape. Looking forward to the next trip! 

CB650 Seat

Just picked up the seat for the CB650, very nicely done and not too expensive, the guys at Posh made a good job (in opposite to the crap one we had made while we still considered to have the Dunstall-tank...).  Can't wait to see it on the bike!

Zoomer

Had some things to take care of around town today so I did some hand-held iphone filming while I was scooting back and forth. It's so much nicer to be on the Zoomer instead of the trains, even though they air conditioning on the trains are quite nice on stinking hot days like we have now...

Check around 1.40 for some badass style!

Rain and BBQ

Been away riding with some friends from work yesterday and today, we went to a volcanic lake where you could see nothing because of the mist and rain. Then we went to a panorama-viewing spot where we also could see nothing else than a white wall of clouds... Then I lost my central stand on the Ducati. And after that we got caught in a massive rainfall and got completely soaked. But the BBQ yesterday night made up for all that and what does some rust on the brake discs matter when your boots are still soaked from the day before anyway?! And it seems that it's just a matter of time before my sidestand will collapse, but all in good time, no need for concerns yet, the bike is lighter, hence faster, without the central stand anyway.

Arigatou 96 for the 45.
