Gone

But not forgotten. My BMW R1150RT. In the end, I got the price I was after, despite the eBayers trying to knock me down. A French buyer contacted me and offered my preferred price there and then, so we set up a quick BIN and he got the bike.

As I watched the new buyer load it into his van ready for the trip to France, I found myself reminiscing about the trips I’ve done on this bike and the times I’ve been through while I’ve owned it. So, I’m a little sad and there is an irony that it is returning to France – and it takes a little of my heart with it.

But in a couple of weeks, I collect the new beast, so my heart will mend soon enough.
