Hi all,
I've been reading the forum on & off for the past few weeks.
Based on the South coast of England, near Portsmouth.
Is it possible to be bitten by the salt bug before you've even been there once?
I think it is because it seems to have happened to me.
I've got a couple of old Brit bikes - a wartime BSA B31 350cc in a bobber style and a 1947 Norton 500cc Model 18 that's pretty standard & which I shipped to Buenos Aires in January 2009 & spent 10 weeks in the saddle riding it through Argentina, Chile, Peru, Colombia & Venezuela following the route taken by Che Guevara in 1952 & immortalised in the book & movie 'The Motorcycle Diaries'.
I'm planning a trip to Bonneville this summer. It'll either be just to watch & learn or, if I find a 'donor' bike very soon, to watch, learn & take part!
I've got some tech questions to ask but will look for the right thread to do that rather than asking here.
Pete
