Is this years friendly rideout going to qualify for "The Most Postponed Rideout" World Record? :roll: :(

Bl :cry: :cry: dy weather!

Went for a spin last night..... ( think I may have upset the owner of a nearly new Audi 4x4 thing who tried in vain to overtake me just after a 30 limit, joined duel carriage with-without indicating he swung out to try and pass me, I let him pull level...I think you can guess the rest :wink: :P I know it's slightly childish but I get a kick out of it every time)

......anyway got home, maneuvering the bike into it's spot in the garage and ping-the clutch cable snapped! So now frantically trying to get a new one and fit it before Sunday-but looking at the forecast doesn't look like I need to hurry.
Perhaps I should sell my bike and get one of these instead?

A good call Si considering Monday and Tuesday this week were both forecast as 60-70% rain in the long range forecasts ..... :roll:
