Challenge 2025 Challenge 2025 - Registration
Essexboy replied to Hoggs's topic in General Rideouts/Meets
Hi May I register for this year please (although a little late) Number 71 of possible but tbh, happy with anything Thank you -
Brilliant! Thanks I've just discovered it and looks like a blast. I'll be registering for sure. The first map link I clicked put me somewhere in the South Atlantic. The second worked and I can spend the next few evenings planning an area (or two) to visit. Thanks again.

Thanks for the ideas. I think I'm sold on Dom's already 🏍

Good day to you all! I was wondering if anyone is taking a trip or short break on their bike end May/early June and would put up with a tag along . It turns out my wife and daughter are off to Benners for the week on the booze and my dog is on holiday too that week. (They thought I'd be at sea but I'll be home) Or, does anybody know of any shows/events that may be on at that time please? Thanks for reading

When did power cuts become power outages ️️️ The pesky Americans probably have something to do with that

Little trip to Wiltshire visiting friends before heading back to sea next week

Changed the brake fluid which was darker than my wee after a night on the beer. Obv managed to spill some on the floor and rear tyre

Went to the National Maritime Museum for some boat porn yesterday. Well worth a trip Had a few beer too... which was nice

Company selling dangerous motorcycle helmets handed large fines https://www.gov.uk/government/news/company-selling-dangerous-motorcycle-helmets-handed-large-fines Check this out! Popped up in my news feed

That's how I bought a Monster

I owned a CB650R previously and it was a cracking bike and would have another. Some schools are affiliated to Honda (for example) and used to offer big savings on a new bike when you passed your test. I got 1K knocked off a brand new bike as I passed with a Honda affiliated school. Might be worth asking your local training schools if the deal currently exists?

You've sussed me out
-
Took it to Suffolk where farms and roads merge into one..... However, they make lovely cake xx
-
Anybody out there got an old workshop manual kicking about that they'd like to part with? Haynes or otherwise is fine. Can purchase new but would like to re-home one
-
Picked my new steed up from darkest Suffolk and had a chilly ride home to even chillier Essex
-
Cheers boss! I pick it up Friday and have started looking at aftermarket bits already
-
Ref my engine light flappy exhaust thingy, after a short ride today. I stopped the engine, and re-started it. Engine light extinguished Then, rode into the dark side of Suffolk and had coffee with Sir Bonio. Went even further into the badlands and purchased another motorcycle......which was nice

I've a camo fetish too. I've had counselling but it's been futile
-
-
Not yet no. I shall do and I'll remove the servo motor complete when it isn't so bloody cold in my garage. Yes I'm a softie. On my bike, the flappy thing with an unloaded spring is in the open position. The light is still showing on the dash but the instructions state it'll extinguish after a short run or two. I'll report back tomorrow if the weather allows a ride
-
I also received an email from "the bay" stating I've purchased an illegal product and that I shouldn't fit it as it contravenes emission laws and I should dispose of it. It's a mad mad world
-
Fitted a servo eliminator plug thingy to get rid of engine light on dash
-
Thanks very much for the advice! I appreciate and have taken it on board. I'll give it some more thought. Hopefully not too much as it may sell..... Thanks again
