All the rest of the sponsors stickers are on the xs.
I'll try to peel them off.
I will take lots of pictures .
The XS had a nice luggage rack my Monster doesn't so i'll have to keep luggage down to what fits in my back pack and tank bag.
Basically a few pairs of dry socks,boxers couple of t shirts and my back up gloves. My waterproof onesie.
Cable ties duct tape pliers and chain wax and a litre of oil just incase.
Mars bars, Snickers and a few tins of Relentless (other energy drinks are available ;op)
One of the event sponsors are Ginsters who make cornish pasties as well as other processed meat and pastry based snacks so we wont starve.

What you are doing sounds very cool. Being a colonist I have often wondered if it was a cool ride to go from one end of the island to the other! I even checked the route one time out of simple curiosity and to see how long it would take. I am green with envoy!
Now to the meat of it; I am going to contribute but I don't want a name put on your seat cowl in memory, I want you to put MY name on there as a current cancer fighter!
If I cannot make the trip myself i can help you toward your goal and you can carry my name across the UK.

That sounds like a really stupid thing to do, stupid fun. Sounds like a challenge from Top Gear. Good Luck to everyone doing this!

Sent you a couple dollars, pounds, beaver pelts whatever it is you guys use for currency over there. Good Luck. I'd say don't do anything foolish but the whole thing is foolish.
