I bet there’s another bike you forgot you had somewhere in there. 

[S-Westerly]

I didn't actually do anything but my son in law overhauled the forks with new seals etc and completely refurbished my brakes as the pads were gone and pistons sticking. He's a good lad.

Fixed bike yesterday even and also had my new helmet delivered. It has. Bluetooth speaker and microphone  looking forwards to trying it out

[Pie man]

Just clocked over 5000 miles on the little MT07 as I rode home  from work tonight. Shameful

There is, I understand, some lovely Trad out there  have fun.

Oil change service at the stealers, then off to look at an M07, but a few rust spots putting me off. So back to the dealers from the morning and test rode a Tracer 900..... bit too much for me at this stage of my riding experience

Thanks. Sport only for me currently, might learn multi pitch before I go. Daunting prospect! 

[James in Brum]

Have you tried Trad before single pitch? I love Trad probably the most of the disciplines but it is a different prospect. I can climb harder on sport  

well before kids, now I just boulder at the local wall for now  

have a great time, I am very jealous.

I have bought the Busa in to work today and will be getting it MOT'd in a bit.

Then I can get to use it to go to a business meeting in Bath tomorrow approx 250 miles away! Should be fun  

Cheers

Lol I should be so lucky but I am looking forward to the stretch between Oxford and Swindon.

The icing on the cake is that after the meeting I can nip in to Dorchester and see my Dad and stay overnight and pootle back on Friday.

Watch out for the 50 mph limits in Oxfordshire as well as random speed cameras. Also unless it has been finished be aware that the Swindon bypass (A419) junction with the A420 is currently a nightmare and the  approaches to the M4 are pretty grim too.

Thanks for the heads up!

If you don’t get it sorted on this trip if in the UK can always do a grit trip and show you the ropes if you like sometime.

Well Ian, if you find yourself near Poole on Friday morning pop in for a cuppa, in the garage most of the day.

Cheers

Pete.

Deposit down on my first big bike. Tracer 700 which I'll be picking up next Saturday. Pray for sunshine if you could.

A338 is an awesome little road, if you're prepared to blink when you pass the 50 signs.
