anyone wanna buy a couple of bikes...

as we dont seem to be getting much use!!

sorry long whinge coming up...

Booked Silverstone National for today bargain at only 95 quid.

Been running around like nutters once again trying to get bikes sorted including trip to coventry to pick one up, desperately trying to find some new tyres, fitting new tyres. Other bike getting new clutch, oil change, bodywork repainted and fitted.

So finally get to yesterday and all the remained was to pick up van, refit wheels, pick my bike up and load up.

simple you would think... but Fred ended up working all day with major problems in work. I got pretty much everything else done, but whilst unloading my bike the clip on bracket snapped!! Another 30 minute journey and then fit new clip on (8pm last night). Finally loaded up at 9.30!

Fish and chips and into bed to watch qualifying for gp. Next thing phone goes again and he is working again UNTIL 4.30 this morning! so with the alarm set for 5 and neither of us having slept a wink it wasn't looking likely

Only plus point is we get to watch GP before unloading the van again!

Rant over ...... and relax.....

Did a 22 hour day yesterday

Missed another trackday, feel like I have a right hangover, I better be taking home some serious coin for this one.

Gonna make a point of claiming for both our trackdays, van hire and my impending mobile bill which would be 12 hours from yesterday alone

Think I might add clip-on to my endless list of just in case spares

(may as well buy another 748 at this rate)

No rush for them at all, they will just sit on the shelf and gather dust so don't worry about replacing them, the mate who bought the SPS has a spare pair as well, as we are both limp wristed jessies with helibars fitted
