I might have to start swimming yet mate! I'll still do the event, even if I have to walk the bloody thing!

... it hard work on some of those roads I felt I was holding people up in the bends. Sorry if this was the case. The roads were great and the company even better one of the best biking days I have ever had now when's the next one !!!!!

Might be worth asking around any engineer friends you have and see if you could borrow an Endoscope and have a look in the spark plug hole. Dead handy bits of kit even if you end up buying one, a cheap but reasonable one is a similar price to a head gasket set.

... anyone had told me :D We were taught to cover the front brake and clutch lever all the time. And despite what we all initially felt was wrong, even downhill your front brake is the one to use. Oh and dust gets everywhere....and i do mean everywhere :D

... out the poison and repair the tooth and to cap it all I've just broken the one next to it this morning. :( Thankfully I have some repair cement so even though I look like a hamster I won't look like a toothless hamster for long I'm not sure what's going to be worse, the dentist or paying the bill!! ...

... of the DSM actually removes the labels PDD-NOS, Aspergers and Autism, and now it is all just Autistic Spectrum Disorder. The logic behind it is even 2 kids with the same label can be wildly different and the labels were pre-judging kids. Now therapies are more designed around the individual ...

Ive used my cam a couple of times, really impressed with it, I ended up have to use one of the sticky mounts as even on the side fairing the sunction mount wasnt great due to the curve of the fairing, fell off once but luckily while not moving. really happy with the quality of ...

... these things I would have to live with. The bike is simply amazing. Blade- get yourself a test ride. The noise alone and the way it makes you feel even at sensible speeds... well, I want one, let's just say that! Sorry to anyone i've bored, the bike just made quite an impression. I will remember ...

... slight vibration when braking. This is now definantly what is happening now it's finally dry again and I've been able to do some hard braking. It even showed on my bike cam when I braked as heavy vibration. I notice that when filtering and riding very slow, if I squeeze the brakes slightly I get ...

... and they told me that they always get tighter when machined the final time, which I knew but they went about 2 sizes too small I couldn't even get it on to try and stretch it, I hope your swill be Ok, thankfully now there is a wide selection of ladies fit available but they still haven't ...

i tried that but she just cried even more

Man up and go. Even if just for the service. And save me a slice.

... and once testing out the route to cheddar. I found the feedback from the tyre incredible, you could feel the exact moment that it span up and even more you could tell it was a loose surface not just the rider being a twat (referring to me of course) then the moment you find clean tarmac again, ...

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.

... my self on. First impressions the bike is really narrow and while being small there's quite a lot of room on it. It was nice and easy to ride even at low speeds. After i got out of town I was able to let it breath and get some speed up. I was quite surprised there was power low down but not ...

You did well to find a place with a demo bike. I've asked at Coventry about a test ride but they don't have a demo bike as they can sell everyone they get their hands on.

Salesman said everytime he orders one as a demo bike he ends up selling it to a customer before it even arrives.

Working but don't know how I'm totally nackered, seventh straight day since I got back from holiday, off tomorrow but so much to do around the house and don't even mention the jungle that's supposed to be a garden at the back of my house.

... all this year 4 things happened to me, bike nicked, plates nicked, car crash (someone used me as their brake) and now bike nicked all within not even a year, where's the point might as well leave having a life and just work for everyone else sit at home when no-one is about. Sorry for filling ...

... open paddock. I really hope it doesn't, the atmosphere at events like thundersport is made special by the fact that people can get into the pits. Even if is just to support and offer "assistance" to some of the riders.. The guy deserves a good kicking, ... just makes me want to punch ...
