Just sold my 1150GS and you, your film and The Speed Shop idea is a massive inspiration. Who thought you could have such a fabulous adventure on a little bike like this. Your video has helped changed my whole attitude to the size of bike I need and what I need to spend on the GS's replacement. Dorothy is fabulous and obviously huge fun that takes you to a happy place. The comment re Romance of Motorcycling and falling out of love with motorcycling - hit the spot perfectly.

Read your book when it came out. Loved it. Just bought another postie bike. I used to buy and sell them. Now they’ve gone through the roof in value here in Oz. I’ll keep this one. Thinking of crossing the Simpson desert next year on it. Great to be doing a job you love.

Really good film! My postie is 37 yrs old with the original engine & still going strong. Nathan is an inspiration to us all.

Great film. I will add that one of Nathan's posties (I can't remember the name) carried me up some very steep bits of rocky terrain easily, even without the low range transmission. And I'm 20 stone! Great and amazing little bikes! Unstoppable.

Thinking about taking my moms old 1981 CT 110 to Minnesota from California. I’m a little worried about getting run over seeing it only does 45 mph wide open. I wouldn’t take it on the interstate but still. Any suggestions? Thanks

You must have a cool mom.. mine said, no MCs, no jeans and no leather jackets! So I rebelled and bought an 80cc suzuki. 😆

So Antony know is The Australian Postal Service currently buying new CT 125's? I am reading they're going to phase them out for electric Kyburz trikes.

The CT110 is no longer in production, they make a CT125.
