Going to the bash and back was my first real trip on a DS bike. Soon after getting my Dakar I went up to Nieuwoudtville via Pakhuis & returned via Wuppertal but without any luggage as others were going by car. I had done a trip to Stanford with luggage but that is all tar. This was to be the first of many trips I hope. I have kitted the bike out myself; basically a single seat and Storm cases as panniers and top box. They padlock to the bike and padlock closed; important if you travel alone & need to leave the bike for a while while having lunch say. I am retired so planned on being away for 10 days and aimed on sticking to as much gravel as possible and to criss cross the mountains as much as possible
