I always thought baselayers were all the same, a much of a muchness – how wrong I was! NW200 superstar Glenn Irwin introduced me to a specialist baselayer brand called Zerofit – they make different baselayers for all temperatures and riding conditions and I only wish I’d discovered their products sooner. They are a complete game changer for motorcyclists in spring, summer, autumn and winter. I’ll be wearing them on all my adventures in future, and I suggest you do the same! Check them out at www.zerofit.co.uk

So if you don’t want to get lost – check out the Garmin gear. We’re using them on the current Africa tour – the Zumo 660 and it’s awesome. I reckon the lead player in the navigation world.http://www.garmin.com/

I’m the president of the Dyslexia society and I’m always pushing to use any influence I have to help motivate individuals who are dyslexic. This issue is often overlooked and so the more attention we can bring to it, the better chance people have of dealing with it and overcoming it. If you need to know anything about this topic – check out their site and find out more! http://dyslexiaaction.org.uk
