Kwacky been over affectionate again?

Nothing to the bike, but I'm a step closer to riding it again.

Picked up some leathers of Gumtree. Alpine stars 2 piece suit, in good condition and never been down the road. £120 with a pair of summer gloves.

Will keep me going until I've got enough spare cash to buy new ones.

... sustain multiple injuries including a broken vertebrae, has placed Martin out of action much to his despair. He is not expected to hit the asphalt again until next year.

... million years in different forms lol. Both very much new ventures of building new territories rather than doing a milk round on existing business. Again it is what I do, and although soul destroying at times with doors being slammed in your face, it's what I am good at and enjoy in the main and ...

9 miles fine and dusted. Had to walk a bit on one of the hills, but support son came from a fellow club member and son got me running again.

I'm knackered now and my legs hurt. Probably another distance run over the weekend.

Happy belated birthday! Is it a never drinking again day today then lol? I don't enjoy hangovers these days!

Hope you get home quickly Kiwi. that sounds like an awful day so far! Well you wouldn't f**king believe it. I'm back in Darwin again!!! We took off, 20 mins in same fault. Waiting in line for overnight accommodation and new flights. Now 28 hrs awake and no idea of when I'll get a bed. ...

... of fun and managed to get both wheels off the ground on a few undulations :) Funny how sometimes a ride makes me feel like a riding god. Might try again this week before it starts getting to dark in the evenings.

The only difference I noticed was the sprocket wore out much much quicker, but at 600 miles a year that's never going to be a problem.

Personally I will never put an alloy sprocket on a road bike again but only because of the mileage.

took the carbs off the cbr600 to try and find an air leak, put them back on, took them off again, put them back on, still got air somewhere, think i need new carb rubbers.

Off to Thorpe Park today. Going to be a nice day for it and haven't been there for a year or 2 now (can't quite remember!) so think it's about time we go there again!

Definitely Kwacky. Must admit when I didn't come off and got settled a bit, I felt like a riding God [emoji1]

It has however opened up my eyes to what unlevelled surfaces can do and it's not something I'm fighting to do again, so I may just stay away from hatches from now on!!

Whipped the back wheel off, nipped into GS, had the new rear popped on, went home, re fitted wheel, took it out for a quick scrub. Went for an M5 again. Old tyre > new tyre after a short spin. http://i1217.photobucket.com/albums/dd388/frankiek7/newrear6715_zpstyx7lvdb.jpg Nice one Frankie you ...

A crack in the board makes sense. That'll explain why it doesn't work against the back of the fob, as the circuit is physically supported by that part of the fob casing in a couple of places, allowing it to flex when you press the button. I've not tried your ...

... police are not focusing on pedal cyclists who in my experience can be a real hazard to other road users. Looks like bikers are becoming a target again which is not good to hear as barring a few idiots most people are sensible safe riders.

It seems that people do this now, rather than have a reserve price on a listing.: the start at a silly low price, then if it hasn't reached a threshold that they are happy with they pull the listing before it is due to end.
If that is the case, they'll probably re-list it again soon.
