Just thought I'd share .... I'm planning on setting off in mid-June this year to ride around the world on a bike. It's something I've fancied doing for quite a few years and it's now or never. I've bought a bike and I've been modifying it for the trip over the last few months; it's nearly finished so I thought I'd show it off:

Yamaha XT660R, bought for �1800 with 18,000 miles on it. It's not cool or funky but it's certainly functional
