Sounds like you're on the right track, with getting the front refreshed and resprung, but as Cav pointed out its the rear that's typically very poor on most bikes, the problem is one of both cost and compromise. The oem Shock is typically a cheap ...

... for. Depending on how I'm going I may do a half in May. Feels good to be motivated again. I hope you clear your cold soon mate and glad you are getting over your injury at last.

... stocker with brand new wets haha! But after a year and half out I felt like my old self again, really relaxed and comfortable but fast and smooth, getting a bit of fish tailing from the back every now and again and a hairy moment round chris curve about 110mph when the wind got so bad I lost the ...

... other cats away (hopefully).. Don't require you to look after them 24/7 and spend time clean them selves most of every day and sleep.. So not like getting dirty and are quiet and hide if nervous (not bark all night).. Enough said :) I'm not a cat person or a dog person... Only put up with a cat ...

... cardio. I need to get my bike sorted and back on the road. It's only a cheap hybrid but it's good enough for me. I've been toying with the idea of getting a bike too and starting training for a Triathlon - then I realise how stupid that sounds! haha... I struggle with Cardio too although I do about ...

If you're getting that done then it's probably worth getting the rear spring swapped over as well. You can have one sorted for your riding weight and style.

I need to get my front forks refreshed.

I love twisties but on my bike I only like them if I can accelerate and brake into and out of them... I don't enjoy JUST flicking left and right as much as hammering into a corner on the brakes then getting a wiggle on exiting the corner

I was very impressed with Smith this year. Head down, consistent rides, getting the bike home and picking up the points.

... oxford gear is good, but when I know it's going to rain ive also been using a rain overcoat, mostly to try to stop the white bits on the jacket getting too shitty.

... half of the race was quite entertaining watching Rossi progress through the pack with a bit of assistance from the people he was passing avoiding getting out of the way. I think he needed to do it all in the first 3 or 4 laps to have stood any chance though because the gap was far too big later ...

On the train to London for a bit of 80's nostalgia which will also mean getting bolloxed !!

Constantly wiping my nose because it is running. I feel like a little kid. I hate colds...I eat the right things (mainly) and does it stop you from getting colds, no!

No it was most of the day your getting delusional in your old age.

Especially so when you work at one of the UK's largest commercial radio stations.

I can see my headphones getting a lot of use over the coming weeks.

Anyone else getting up early for the juicy snippets

It's a great program. I reckon I'd be fine

You will be very happy! It sits quite high and intially takes some getting used to compared with the Arai Chaser - it feels like part of your view is obscured. However, after a week or 2 of riding you will completely forget about it! That looks nice with ...

SAS program from Monday night. It's really getting tough now last few days

Genuinely sorry to hear this Cav. I hope things improve soon. And stay strong buddy she needs you but always feel comfortable to rant on here if things are getting YOU down. Can't be easy for you and it's always good to talk buddy

Sorry to hear this Cav but glad to hear she has a decent guy like you to support and help her. Employers are getting better with flexible hours and working from home these days so hopefully something should come up soon. Alternatively can she start her own small buisness from ...
