Evil Electrics

Hello to anyone who might read this cacophony of rambling thoughts and musings. I've never thought anyone would be interested in my life, mainly because I'm not that much, but I've decided to create this blog with the aim of providing some enlightenment to ... well... anyone who reads it. Reading other folks blogs about their trips across the world has provided me with quite a bit of entertainment, so I thought I might repay the debt.

The bike, a 2006 KTM 640 Adventure runs, until the alarm decides to activate, then it blows a fuse and half the electrics die. I hate electrics. They're fantastic on paper when you design some amazing looking circuit diagram, but when you try and build whatever it is, it never works first time. Then the fun begins trying to troubleshoot the problem. It's not like an oil leak where you can physically see what is wrong. This mystical force flowing through the wires provides me with endless torment.

Anyways, I shall aim to update this blog regularly for anyone who reads this. If nobody does read this I'll at least have kept my small ego happy.
