Holla! Waz up Westwood, you not been round me crib for the bike, it needs some of phat pimp juice. Well not no more, it's had a right going to at Ernie's place. Fanks anywayz!

And here she is in all her lovin' glory, won't be doin' that superman seat grab…..

On reading the Adventure Motorcycling Handbook I decided it best to get the bike down to Overland Solutions for a bit of fabrication work. And as you can see Ernie has done an exceptional job on getting the bike ready so that it has half a chance of withstanding the abuse that it'll be subjected to over the coming months. As you can see my chosen steed is the mighty KTM Adventure. There's been an awful lot said and written about these and I can assure you it is great fun to ride. I just hope that it's as bullet proof as people say they are. I wish that in time she'll become my untouchable!

Before you ask Charley it's a KTM because I paid for it; there is no danger of this trip being taken over by any corporate exec's with ponytails wearing baseball caps as it's all being financed by my good self. No production company here. On that note a special mention to the bank manager for signing off the bank guarantee for the Carnet de Passeages. Nice people at HSBC and why is Egypt so expensive, 800% import duty!!

Just a few little things remain to arrange and sort out then get through Christmas, deal with the last minute panic. Then the big day in January, Elvis leaves the country.
