Might be possible to ride up with mark Karl Dave Trevor? Sort that's all just Captain Nemo .... I mean Squadron Nero ... I am terrible with names lol

Anyway he is down your way I think and I am in Nantwich and the arsonist known as Firestarter claims he no longer lives in Winsford but I don't believe him ! So there's a few of us potentially heading from the same area ?

Good point. Dunno where 10am came from. Guess I'll see you all at Marches meet then...

Geoff, if you're up and mobile, we definitely need to sort a rideout

But have you taken the bike out recently?

Also, I'm still in. Got to find a new route to Buxton though, last time was purgatory.

Surprisingly accurate that the screaming is when I am in the crappy old A class as I hold on to what's left of it as yet more bits drop off !

And if you to through purgatory to get anywhere its never going to be a good journey is it ?

Wages of sin and all that, but the hours are good and the benefits are exceptional.

Sorry folks, can't be there, as I am in my usual place at this time of year, Coral Bay in Cyprus.
Have a good run out, hope weather is OK, (it's nice and sunny here).

So
Bike A has the wrong grade of oil 10/40 and now finding the neutral is nigh on impossible
It also has a sprocket with vroken teeth

Bike b has an escape if vapour and a damp patch on the bottom left hand rad (left as you sit on the bike

Also needs new tyres

Another great day

10/40 is ok for the falco mate.

Looks like I will be having a run to yours shortly.

Buy a DID 525 chain set brother and get the kettle on.

Sort a Radiatior too.

You have a paddock stand?
Tolerance will be our undoing.
