hold the front page!

while changing the C&S i noticed the rear wheel bearings fall apart

ffs what else is gonna go wrong

so Sunday playtime depends on cost of replacement parts

i'll update tomorrow when i find out

Darn, if had spotted this earlier woulda pointed you in direction BRT bearings in Hamworth (end M3), probably got them off the shelf

Done: Homo sap navigation/ twisty thing on bars to make it go vroom/ grabby thing to make it stop (in front of twisty thing)/ 'leccy things front and rear to make it glow at night/ Sucky + drippy oiler thing to keep chains moist (!!) / Laser Pro Stock Race pipes / bleeding ear drums (see previous mod)
To do: Educate homo sap nav system to operate twisty + grabby things/ get ear plugs

~~All Trashed Now... Pants... its a Cat B~~ Mwahahaha it lives again!!

Remember every driver is a deaf myoptic twat who is out to kill you, ALWAYS assume they are going to do THE most f*cking DUMBASS, STUPID manouver possible, at the worst possible moment; get past, and get past quick

As this is going to be my first long run on the newly rebuilt TDM, (its a 130 miles from here to the start point alone!) I may have some "problems" en-route to you, so can you PM me your mobile, so if I hit trouble, I can let you know whether I'll make it there or not.

cheers and I'm looking forward to meeting some of you at last.

It's going to be a scorcher! You'll have a great day (and I'm not jealous

Hi Guys,

well made it back home eventually, no problems, just got a call out to work when I was about 15 miles from home, so a quick about face, and another 100 miles added to the days total. Found a young couple shagging against our site fence, which sets off a silent alarm, so they was a bit surprised when I appear around the corner!

Total mileage for me today was just under 500 ............. my ass hurts! Other than me fluffing a quick getaway in Basingstoke, and chucking my wallet all over Avebury, a good day out.

Thanks to Toneski, Bondy and Chris for the warm welcome.

See ya all again soon I hope.

Mike.
