Tough times Spudda and I hope they are soon behind you. My mate had a brain tumour the size of a visit last year, it's been a difficult journey but very fortunately his last 2 scans have been completely cancer free and he is running the Manchester 10k in a few weeks. Stay strong mate hopefully thing...

Kwacky is it possible he could take nutrition on in a liquid form ? There are some great products out there. Just a suggestion. I know its not ideal but may help with physical strength and energy levels also possibly assist with blood pressure I don't know.

Kwacky the main reason for considering them is I need something that will give reasonable mileage but I want decent dry grip as a priority as I don't ride all year or when wet really. A quick warm up time would be a bonus. I know I know I want my Cake and eat it

Sorry Nutz I didn't realise you had them and from your opening comment I thought you were explaining the sales blurb.

So how do you rate there dry weather grip ? I would be particularly interested to hear how quick they turn in and what the drive is like coming out of a corner.

Taking the kids to a local petting farm and stables. There some duck ponds, a park and a cafe too. As its walking distance from house down the back lane it will kill an afternoon easily.

Well I didn't know that. Every day is a school day. Although I can see the reason for such policy it does penalise people who are sick whilst on holiday. Personally if I was sick on holiday I would phonenwork cancel the holiday and go on sick leave with a doctors note. Saying that I have not had a s...

I wouldn't personally class the m7 as super sporty though Nutz and that's my question really. How sporty are they ? I know they focus on mixed conditions and predominantly wet conditions but a lot of reviews say they have plenty of grip which I didn't really understand as they have increased the lan...

You got some special cornering technique your not sharing mate ???

Which race game is it itchy ?

Roadsmart is not really a sports tyre though Spudda, its a road orientated sports touring tyre. Dunlop's comparable fast road tyre to the m7rr is the sportsmart.

I hear a lot of good things about the m7rr but what I can't get me head round is how heavily treaded the front tyre is for such a sporting tyre.

Very much look forward to hearing how rocket rates them on his gixer.

Those bikes are too clean

Sometimes saving it for another day is the best way, Blade. I've been out this afternoon even though i didn't feel 100%. Just went for a ride round the lanes in Staffordshire. Sometimes i quite enjoy that, stopped for a bottle for water in the sunshine and then headed back all at a fairly sedate pa...

Turned it around. Headed out into Derbyshire but traffic was too busy, I was too hot with too many layers on, wasn't gelling at all with the ride and knew staying out would be probably be a bad idea. Did the sensible thing and turned it around. Now enjoying a glass of wine in the garden with my fami...

Sorry to hear this hope he's OK and best wishes.

Bled the rear brake on the ten. Noticed it wasn't the best yesterday.

Great post well done to everyone. Sorry to hear you had to pull out but awesome effort and something to be very proud off.

OK guys a quick up date on the mods and I reckon you may be surprised with the results as I was. The best mod by far was the one which was effectively free. By making a shim from some spare alloy I had knocking about I have improved the gear change from agricultural to extremely positive and smooth....

Got back on the bike for the first time since being knocked off and knocked out a few weeks ago. It went OK, though I was pretty nervous with the amount of braindead mongs with their uncontrolled kids and dogs in Cannon Hill Park. I decided that the roads should be pretty quiet on a Bank Holiday Su...

Nice shots as always Jack.

Agree with Kwacky the second shot is ace and really captures the closeness of the racing.
