The last 40,000 are still there, so no more needed just yet!


But at least one thing was settled today ....... MKII Silver and Yellows are way faster than MKI of any indeterminate colour!!!!

cue abuse......

Other than me fluffing a quick getaway in Basingstoke

From the lights? I heard that one despite wearing ear plugs!

I blame lack of practice, prior to that I'd done about 60 miles in the previous month and a half, as you could probably tell from my lack of confidence with overtakes

So if Mk1 riders like burgers and Mk2 riders prefer egg and chips, what do 900 riders eat?

I averaged 38mpg by the way which might explain why you could smell fuel jht's gonna show me hows to do my emulsion tubes though which should help

Er...Tonski, you followed me up the A4 after we split from Bondy in Newbury didn't you? Have you had a letter from Thames Valley constabulary as well?

Thames Valley don't send you a link to the photo like Wiltshire do, I'm half tempted to request it under FOI regs

How fast and where?

A4 Bath Road, Thatcham, 40 in a 30 at 15:13. I stopped to see if my mate was in, and then got back on the A4 when I found he wasn't, so it could well be after we split as I think technically Thatcham starts after that point and I don't think there's a 30 limit before then, although me not thinking there's a 30 limit there is probably why I was doing 40 in a 30 Threshold for a speed awareness workshop seems to be 39

Thanks. I've placed them on the things-that-I-want list.

There's knee armour specifically for them, depending where you get them it can be free, however it velcros on to the inside of a pair of pretty baggy trousers so is free to move all over the place and therefore IMO not much use. I bought some Knox motocross knee armour to wear under it instead.

ouch, if thats the camera i think it is, its just before an Esso petrol station, i used to pass thru there weekly so i would have been aware of it
i'll check the post when i get home tho just incase

i dont normally wear the armor under the jeans, but agree the free stuff you get is good quality although not really great for baggy troosers
as Chris says the moto-x stuff would get my vote

That's the stretch I'd expect there to be a camera on so am suprised I was doing 40 on it Must have been having a brain off moment

[TonyDevil]

got home and nearly threw my toys out the pram when i discovered a letter from the DVLA

luckily it was just the V5 for trixy
so sorry matey, was just you with brain off moments
