Off to Cape Town in the morning,on the 'Blue Train'. One of those things I've been meaning to do for years but never got around to. Tell you all about it when I get back!

For me, trains and triumphs are connected. I had never been on a train till i bought my speedy 3 years ago and had to take a train to go pick it up 60 miles away ! Knowing where i was headed made it all the more fun, but in any case i had a blast that day taking the train. The last 3 miles or so i had to walk tho, but even that was fun anticipating my destination..........the first bike i'd bought in 20 years.
