That's next year's French trip sorted then

Looks lovely at Le Mans today. Just watching FP2 which has just started.

Was tempted to go this year, might next year as never been.

... sportsbike the old girl lacks some grunt. Not surprising giving away 60 bhp, as the modern litre sportsbikes have 50% more power than the 12 year old weapons but boy is that chassis still sweet. You have to ride it smooth and flowing but she can carry some corner speed for a lardy old lump :P

... but two separate Honda insiders have now confirmed to Bike Social a brand new version of Honda’s sports bike will be launched later this year and on sale in 2017. An official launch is not expected until later this year at one of the two main trade shows; either in Cologne in October ...

I can't do this one, but keeping an eye on Pembrey for later in the year. My best mate lives about 25 minutes away and has a field/meadow we could camp in. Plus possibly some of the best roads ever on the way down.

... turf for myself. Saturday evening, now booked. I better check my bike over, this will be the first time I've even started the engine this year.! http://www.675.cc/675/styles/default/xenforo/smiliesv1/icon_redface.gif Please don't collect any turf!

If I get any more than the bog standard 1.5% or whatever they're offering this year it'll be a bonus.

the haynes museum is well worth a visit if you are ever down that way,according to them they use in house experts to write the books.Every car in the museum is driven at least once per year on their private test track

I've just asked for a pay rise. Judging by the reaction I won't be treating myself to a new bike any time soon.

I should get a decision in a few weeks time. Salary reviews take place in June so I thought I would get in early while they're still doing the budgets for next year.

10k yesterday as a support runner for a 7 year old lad, amazing amount of respect for him for running a 10k but even more when he finished in under 1:10. That seriously impressive from a 7 yr old!! You must have provided some great support! Or ...

Replace the lines first Cookie as a cheap and decent mod as well as good maintenance on a 10 year old bike.

I would also consider replacing the caliper seals or at least stripping and lubing them to check their condition.

Both cheap and simple jobs.

... - move the bike forward a metre or so - lever goes to the bar :( I'm thinking the master cylinder is either air bound or knackered. its a ten year old bike, so i might have to refurb the mc or replace the lines. My suspicion is that the pads are pushing back and the MC isn't stopping the fluid ...

... checking anything that's rubber to make sure it's not started to degrade. Good shout. My kawasaki manual suggests changing rubber brake lines at 4 year old. Are there any cracks or splits in the hoses that could be sucking air in ?

... the bike a really good deep clean, all muck off it from the Skeggy trip, cleaned the chain and ACF50'd everything! Also changed my original (10 year old) number plate that was cracked and had 6, yes 6, holes in it with a brand spanking new one, it's surprising how a little change can make you ...
