Re: UK law change set to allow isle of Man-style road racing

It would need to be some circuit layout IMO to maximise spectator viewing. I believe there was a triangle of roads in Derbyshire which original hosted a event. Duke posted the route once. However saying that I would be surprised of anti biking Derbyshire council would allow such am event unless it w...

Re: UK law change set to allow isle of Man-style road racing

Some areas will be more receptive to it than others. I'm old enough to remember street racing in Birmingham, that was very popular.

Re: UK law change set to allow isle of Man-style road racing

Woo I think this is very exciting but I wonder how long it will be before people are not happy about roads closing and the inconvenience, People who move next to tracks then moan, stupid, this is a bit different if the track comes to your home. I can understand that a bit more (may not personally ag...

Re: The new improved fitness thread

Slowly getting back into the training now my back and thumb are a bit more sorted.

Once I get into the swing of the new contract I'm going to restart the sessions with the trainer, and hopefully start doing some road running again.

ZX6R oil change 2009 onwards

... needs to be a snug fit but even then there will still be some leakage. The side fitting is a bit strange but at least the filter isn't exposed to road crud so it should come off without any problem. There is enough room to work on the filter without moving the fairings. Remove the old filter. ...

Re: Another Dolgellau accident

The danger comes from the position of the road joining the A470 and where the junction is. If a vehicle is doing a decent speed down the A470 then you've got a limited time to see them, which is why you get a lot of similar accidents where the emerging vehicle pulls out.

Be far better spending their time clamping down on big polluting vehicles or uninsured road users. That WOULD save some lives.
