Our Africa Twin is back!

We have our bike back at last and she is taking it easy at Lings Honda at their showroom in Harleston! Lings proved very efficient at sending new chain and sprockets to us in Panama.





The old, the new and Leo admiring them both!




Collecting from Felixstowe.

Our bike left LA on the MSC Julie, a container ship with a gross weight of 95,403 tonnes, sailing under the flag of Panama. She sailed through the Panama Canal to Colon and over the Atlantic to Portugal.



However, somewhere on route and due to delays, the container our bike was in was switched to another smaller ship called MSC Ingrid to keep it on schedule. Also sailing under the flag of Panama but with a gross weight of 53,208 tonnes. It was due to arrive in Felixstowe on the 16th February but arrived only a day late.
