Yeah, we're keeping a close eye on it Andy. Keep a weather (sorry :mrgreen: ) eye out as we'll be making the call yea or nay on Saturday p.m. It's looking dodgy though I'll admit :( - - - - - but there's always next Sunday :) :)

I'll be making that crossing Larry(in a van) as off to Wales to play wheelie times. That'll be fun in those conditions.

I'm gonna have to declare myself out anyway on medical grounds.
Had a cold chasing me all week but as of today it has progressed into full blown man flu, and as all men know.. man flu is serious!

I'm well pee'd off.. have just fitted a new screen, new exhaust and had a remap so was looking forward to a good days ride in order to fully access the gains... will have to wait until next week now.

If you read between the lines - it's wet outside and I don't like the wet. I've set an alarm for April/May time to get the bike out again.

If you do manage a dry day, above 12° before them, please contact my people via triplicate and i'll consider it. =))

lol.
One bike has already been put away for the winter, but the 1190 is staying out until the end of October, though the conditions you have mentioned would need to be met before I get out of bed.

Weather forcast indicates it'll be hissing it down at 9am (4.1mm) drying out at midday,but just to upset us all it'll fine all next week including Sunday next.
Not looking promising to run in my new back tyre.

I've got a spare clutch lever fitted and have spent a few hours trying to piece together the various bits of broken plastic - will know tomorrow whether it's strong enough to put back together. If it is, I'm available as TEC as originally planned
