Is that as good as nasal sex? fk nose. getmecoat

Starting to get some luggage together for the trip. No rack available for the Tornado, the rear seat is an odd shape and doesn't work with my Kreiga tail bag and it's a plastic tank so a magnetic tank bag doesn't work. I thought I'd be clever and get a s/h Givi Tanklock tankbag and the Triumph fitting kit. Fitting kit works fine but, the filler is so close to the back of the tank I can't actually reach the bars with the tankbag fitted. Bugger.

I was taking a smallish rucksack anyway as the tank bag isn't that big, but I reckon throw over paniers may be the way to go provided I can protect the paint.

We are sailing at 6:00AM from Liverpool, so were planning on riding up the day before and spending the night somewhere. Does anyone have any recommendation of somewhere not too far from the docks that preferably has secure parking?
