RUST magazine: RUST#27

RUST #27: there’s no such thing as a regular issue, we’re sure. In 27 we bid a sad farewell to an iconic race bike recently lost in a fire. As a counterpoint we have a motorcycling miracle to report, too, as JB actually gets his Project TLR up and running – and competes on it… While for our adventure-nut readers we have a brilliant ‘how to’ on preparing for The Big Trip. Plus a bit more. As always. We hope you’re having a great season’s riding and that you’ll enjoy the read. More soon! Jon Bentman (Editor, RUST)

great job of it we haven’t hesitated in publishing his<br />

document here in this issue of Rust. If you’re<br />

contemplating a big trip, July’s words will definitely<br />

be of great value to you.<br />

A word of warning, though. If you do try some of<br />

this adventure travel thing then be aware it is<br />

seriously addictive. Having enjoyed adventure rides<br />

in thailand, Madagascar and Australia in the past 18<br />

months I can hardly need for more saddle time, but<br />

I do so desperately want to be out there on a trip,<br />

right now! there’s something really exciting about a<br />

dirt trail leading into the unknown – and whether<br />

that trail is an ancient green lane between hedgerows<br />

in the English home counties, a logger’s road into<br />

the Rockies or a cow-cocky’s track into the Outback,<br />

the buzz is pretty much the same. there’s no better<br />

way to find the world. And yes I really do need<br />

another hit, and soon...<br />
