Everything comes to an end!

 Hello guys,

Now I can say that the East to West trip across Russia to West United Kingdom has come to an end at St Davids in South Wales, with four wonderful camping days to finish the journey.

St Davids is the smallest city in the United Kingdom and set in a beautiful area by the coast. First settled in 519AD as a monastery called Tyddewi, meaning St David's after the Archbishop.

Plundered by Vikings in 1087 and so on, with far more to mention than I have room for.

So with an almost empty campsite I walked to the furthest part of my travels to watch the sunset go down into the sea and reflect on the end of a dream that did come true.

The bike has been simply fantastic, and my only advice for looking after vehicles is change the oil regularly.

With this final journey I estimate that the total Kilometres travelled is 18630,

Problems were as listed:

- Split radiator, repaired with Plastic Metal. Still working today.

- Burnt out voltage regulator wires, Two times. Replaced wires

Burnt out " " Connector box Two times, Removed connector box, wired individually and improved cooling with a fitted hose from outside the seat to Voltage Regulator

- Broken pivot rising link bearings at base of the rear shock. Replaced with spare arm.

- Failed Radiator Fan heat sensor, Made up manual ON/OFF switch.

So as far as I can remember that was all the major problems I had, all fixable, thank goodness.

So that's all for now, Have to work for a living again and maybe another trip, WHO KNOWS

Hope you enjoyed the ride.

Paul.
