I was taught this on CBT but differently on DAS. That was just mirror on left turn unless you are unsure, e.g. Most left turns on normal road unless you have just overtaken a cyclist before turning (which you shouldn't do anyway) there is little chance one is going fast enough to catch you up and undertake you as you turn. Nothing theoretically should be coming up on the inside of you. The unsure bit comes down to you that if it has been stop start traffic coming up to junction or road layout dictates that something may appear then nothing wrong with being sure. Right turn is different because there could always be a vehicle trying to overtake you so should always be a life saver on right turn. Roundabouts are opposite left lifesaver as you come off a right turn and right lifesaver when you do left turn, felt confusing when briefed how to do it, seemed natural doing it as that was where traffic was coming from.

That gives me hope then Can imagine that weren't to fun, public transport certainly don't do comfort Yeah nothing will be good about journey if it don't clear by then, low car with sport seats and stiff suspension

My biggest concern is I head to Wales for a week next Saturday, got a cold last week and was glad I could get that out the way before then and now this just hoping I can get rid of it before then, especially as drive to shops was bad enough my seats really dug it so don't fancy that for 4-5 hours

That would be the best bit. @Six30 wanting it to look like a sex toy, @Via crashing it. What more could people want Just build it without brakes I'll be fine

Just from location and symptoms (plus have been kidney punched before so know how they hurt ) may be totally wrong though. No bicarbonate of soda to try but cranberry juice does seem to be easing it now. Have not taken any meds today other than first thing this morning ones just in case as well. [mention]TimR[/mention] couldn't agree more in regards to staff they are great and certainly got my NI contributions out of them but certainly see waiting times much higher than ever before and with out of hours there used to be 3 places here where you'd call up and after triage be given an appointment at whatever is least busy surgery (or closest if quiet) and normally be seen within minutes with a couple of doctors working in each, in the time I waited there I only see one doctor come out calling people, maybe a fluke busy day but I'm more inclined to believe the strain and lack of finding to NHS it is a normal night there.

Can't give exact figure but didn't start taking bike out regularly until about mid March this year, then not been on bike since 17th April, so probably about 50 miles if that The ER5 still not been ridden since I restored it as well

First off not a moan at NHS as they are doing tough job and most of the people I've met over last 7 months have all been brilliant. But the state of the system is absolutely disgusting now. Woke up this morning feeling really achey and sick, just getting over a cold so didn't think much of it. Couple of hours later I'm curled up in agony as if I'd just been punched in kidney, absolutely sweating and boiling hot (ended up putting t-shirt and shorts on in this weather!) Anyway being a bloke ignored it and it eased a bit, my brother was due round and don't get to see him much lately, so he was here a few hours most the time I had to stand up, every time I sat down would feel constant pressure on kidney. We went and got some cranberry juice and he went so had few glasses of that and laid down again. Within an hour I'm in agony again... So Google number of our out of hours doctor and find can't just call them anymore you have to call 111, so called them and get a call back a bit later and after telling them what's happening get told to goto A&E... Think that was extreme as despite it hurting like crazy I just want to see a doctor but off I go to A&E. When I walked in was gobsmacked, waiting room practically empty. Was called to see triage within 15 mins which was great and then told I need to see doctor so was taken round to out of hours service, it was like a 3rd world. There were people everywhere, waiting room was jam packed, chairs along corridor full with people as well as people standing everywhere . Thought my way to reception and booked in to get told 6 hour wait! Managed to find a single seat in corner that no-one had nabbed so sat down. After about half hour (just gone 6pm) woman opposite who has been there since 11am goes to check how much longer and told there is 6 people ahead of her still! At this point I've got option of sitting in an uncomfortable chair in pain for 6 hours or go home lay in bed in pain and call doctor in the morning... So I'm now laying down watching end of the snooker. Will finish off my cranberry juice (disgusting but if it helps I don't care) and have a sleep, chances are excluding sleeping time I'll be waiting less to see my normal doctor

Always wanted to enter but put off by the entertainment bit you have to do at start

Dark blue were definitely ungummed but can't find any for sale now, even on Amazon (listed but unavailable) or eBay. Silver may have been ungummed in the past and still for sale but can't be sure and can't find anything that says either way. Think you'll have to get normal ones and cut off the gum strip.

When I worked in IT the company I was with had a lot of the staff jump ship to one their competitor's and with a lot of sour grapes (one chap at 16.50 on a Friday casually turned to manager and said just to let you know I won't be in on Monday, I've found another job). About a year later they bought out rival company and refused to tupe over any of the ex staff that left on bad terms

too true, still not tried anything bike related yet, have a few ideas of bits I want to do just not got round to them... Still never seem to have any time lately But if you happen to need any pieces less than 220x220x240 let me know

I take it clips are hidden when affixed, I'd plastic weld them, that's what I did for ER5 and stronger than original. Use some thick single strand copper wire (or even a staple) and fold so you have an S shape and melt into the plastic across the crack. You can get plastic filler rods on eBay or use cable ties. Most common mistake is people overheat the plastic making it brittle, you want lowest temp plastic melts at (normally 210°c is good). Plenty of example videos on YouTube.

Not good! Surprised at metal bracket going, tbh fairing can be so flimsy it breaks from just being removed so don't expect that to look good but would expect the metal supports to survive

Had surgery on hand few years ago (not accident related) and didn't realise how hard it is being one handed! Expected it to be just a minor inconvenience but ended being so much hassle Hope it heals up soon

They're pearly from the icing covering. Disco ring biscuit style then, they’re a bit pearlescent and the ring wouldn’t have to be that big because I’m thinking not many of us will be getting through Funny enough exactly what I was thinking off Who would want to go through, will be full of boring people -
I try to pretend they don't exist happy belated birthday to you and [mention]fastbob[/mention] though, how's the wrist?
