Bikes & Reviews

This is where I share what I’ve learned from the bikes I’ve owned and ridden. I’ll start with the one I keep coming back to, my Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE.

My Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE

My Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE parked on a gravel road at sunset.

I’ve owned two Scrambler 1200 XEs. I sold the first one, tried other bikes, and ended up buying another. It’s the bike I want to take when I’m heading into the hills near Málaga and don’t know how much of the ride will be on tarmac. I’ve also ridden it from Sweden to Spain twice, which taught me a few things about packing soft luggage around those high exhausts.
