The Gear Test Trip! – Trans Euro Trail – Wales!
…This trip started for us a few weeks before – with a “gear test” trip to North Wales! Camping gear test being the most important part of it and a few green lanes to test the strength of the luggage. We went past Ceiriog trail, a place called White Stones and one forest trail nearby, before going back on the newer version of Trans Euro Trail. Unfortunately those lanes are now excluded from the new TET, but I believe there is a good reason for that…
Anyway, this gear test trip didn’t end very well for us, as on the way Andrew’s Yamaha’s rear wheel bearings collapsed and we had to wait 4 hours on the side of the road for a recovery truck.. And another hour or so for the garage to sort them out before we hit the TET again.
All in all, it was a great one and a half day ride. We tested our gear as we planned to, Andrew had a chance to test Welsh trials roughness,experiment a bit with navigation apps and put recovery service usefulness to the test!
Just to be clear, the recovery driver’s service was great, no complaints about that, but we learned that reading the small print when signing up for one of those recovery services is a must!…
