One tip from experience: if you loosen the clamps to move the fork legs up a bit, do it one side at a time. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to raise a whole bike up by six inches when they both drop together.

Great advice, that's the easiest way to learn it, from a guy who knows! Cheers!

The pig is getting your leg over the bike when it's loaded.. so you learn the Tenere Waltz, which involves putting your leg over the sear then 'hopping' towards the bike to get the leg over it. Sounds complicated, it's really natural to do, just looks a bit odd!

Thanks for all the advice 'Gas' but this bit made me laugh especially because I just saw a German dude do just that on the Tube of You.
To everyone else as well, thank you so much for making me so welcome. Brilliant forum, and here's to me gettin' a Tenere eh!
Cheers
Peter
