  6. Oh, so there is no need for gritters? They just need to pour warm water on the roads? Pouring warm water gets rid of ice by melting it, though that water is then liable to stay and refreeze. Adding salt/grit lowers the freezing point of water, a preventative. One's a solution to get rid, one's a preventative, completely different things... I think they were taking the piss so to speak Oh................urine will contain salt which will prevent refreezing
  7. I was going to take a pic but then I got this god awful feeling I was being watched by the missus Sooooooooo I tried to pursuade Mat to get a pic with her but he just looked at me with disapproval I think it was disapproval anyway What is he?...................Gay or something?
  8. And had 'chrome cleaning' been asked I wouldn't have recommended it. The question was about stainless. Oh sorry That is of course what I meant as it did this to my stainless can and was a bugger to get rid of the staining If it ends up staining the steel then its an endless polishing task
  9. I use Brasso and that grease stuff Be careful if you decide use wonder wheels Its a mild acid and if you leave it on too long it will stain the chrome
  10. Like wise Still looking for the Hobbit pics

  12. I was struggling with this thinking why would you want your face to be more accessible I could only think of two reasons.............none of which were particularly appealing Then I reread it and picked up on the "in an emergency" bit Surely if your going to buy a flip front lid, then it should tell you somewhere in the gumph you get with it, whether it is adviseable to ride with the flip part up or not ?
  13. Best of luck to you Mick

  20. Pump it up and see what happens It may be rideable to a repair shop if you have a stone in it, but it may go down too quickly.......depends how far away the tyre place is and pumping it up back up might force the stone out to a point where it will no longer be acting as a plug............... You can repair tyres but if the symetry is gone it won't be worth it Sorry I should have put a little more detail in my response
  21. I think I'd be inclined to pump the tyre up and see what happens Also when you do pump it up, check the symetry of the cross section I had a rear tyre lose pressure due to lack of checks and ended up having to buy a new one as it wore excessively on one side making it a wierd shape Check your tyres regularly in future I do mine once a week now whether I'm riding or not
  22. Sorry Been up north annoying the northern jessies lol
  23. Just one question Probably a stupid one, but I'll ask anyway I haven't gone through the T&C's etc as I am only considering one As this is am IAM event are you expected to wear a one piece leather or are you permitted to wear your everyday riding kit? many thanks
