Thanks to Mark for organising this today and Matt for leading, fun going and the river run was interesting to say the least.

Thanks guys, what a great day! Matt and Mark, the leading was top class.

I made it back to the car ok (took the long route i.e got lost). Not sure what’s wrong with the clutch, it’s like the cable is too tight as the bite is right at the start of the lever travel and if I put any load on the engine it just revs out and clutch slips.

I’ll see if adjusting the cable works, else it will be a new clutch! 6k miles, may be that time.

Thanks again, amazing day. Anyone got any video footage?

That looks a lot of fun and takes me waaaay back to my mudplugging days on two wheels. Makes me think about having yet another mid-life crisis and swopping the CBR 600 track bike for two new knees and a trail bike :)): .
