Our New Austrian Steed, Maya - Onwards and Upwards

We have joined the coul club now, I thought about F800GS and Triumph 800XC, either bike would be good, also considered a Ural sidecar, prolly a bit easier in the soft stuff and carry more home comforts.

Those of you unfortunate enough to know me know I love Orange having had the KTM 990 SMR in New Zealand which was nothing short of a weapon, I always wanted a 950 Super Enduro, nearly bought one in NZ but missed out by two weeks on a great bike with only 7500km on the clock and bone stock.

So fast forward to 27th November 2012, our disaster day, this day changed the dynamics of our trip completely.

Firstly, Ellen was damaged, thankfully not too badly, secondly, Chiwi took a hit and will need a new frame, bars, mirrors, headlight and front guard etc.

So that Chinese dude on New Zealand TV for the moss stuff ...... Look I Walk Away

So Ellen took his good advice Look I Walk Away from riding ..... and will passenge from here so there will be more off the bike shots.

So not to drag it out, here we are our new Austrian pony.
