Off Road Motorcycle Experience at Bevercotes

... of a bend, dirt and shale going everywhere. :) Definitely a case of letting the bike do what it wants within reason. The jumps were another matter though and one guy hurt himself on the first lap and took no further part and was ambulanced to a hospital at the end for an X ray on his leg. The advice ...

Re: Insurance time

Bratty, up until last year I used Bennets since I started biking and had no probs.
Last year though they bumped up my premium from 230ish to well over 400 quid. No reason for it and not interested in price matching.
So just keep an eye out at renewal time!

... Byron isn't low functioning. I have spent time with a family with a servely Autisc boy that was the same age as Byron and I really felt for them. Though it was amazing, Byron and him seemed to have an understanding and played together (well parallel play) all weekend with absolutely no spoken ...

Re: Cross threaded engine bolt :(

I think that's a common problem. It happened to mine. I think the R and G thread isn't spot on to be honest because it also happened on the D600.

No idea what to do though.

Re: Catalunya Motogp - Spoliers alert

I'm not happy with BT sport, hope they lose it to be honest. The Beeb wasn't great but at least they didn't show you the results when you opened iPlayer and put they replay on fairly sharpish.

I'd probably feel different about them if I could record it and watch it on the same day though.

Re: Kwacky's ongoing M7rr Metzeler review

It woke me up though :?

Re: Catalunya Motogp - Spoliers alert

I do which BT would let their video coverage roll for a few minutes longer though. The coverage ends as soon as the race does so you don't even see the cool down lap.

As long as they can collect tax on the fruits of that work I believe, I suspect we are perceived as sheep to be shorn by HMRC.
