Hope you enjoy it as much as I did

Good stuff. Thanks
Who were you renting from?
I don't really know much about the Tornado so any thoughts would be welcome.
As would any key things to do/see/beware of, routes etc.
I'm definitely taking out a helmet as for 10 days riding comfort's important plus, if it's hot, I'd rather bathe in my own sweat than that of others.
I'll probably take out a couple of pairs of padded cycling shorts to help with the seat - sorely (pun) needed on my usual F800gs so I was banking on a smaller trailie to be even worse.
