June will be fine...

You wont ever be lonely unless you try real hard in June... zillions of peoples all over the place!!! Gaz your setup looks sweet... a 130 is the ultimate tourer... they just lope along the broken roads and can still crawl around in the rough stuff. Sleeping on the roof is the only way to go. You will be fine, just look after your tyres and carry 2 spares. Take your time and enjoy yourselves.

Steve
