• Saturday: Meet Moto 2 racer, Scott Redding, BSB star Alex Lowes and brother WSS racer, Sam.

• Sunday: Meet Tommy Hill, reigning BSB Champion

Yup my bike weekend starts Friday with the sun out down to Chipenham to get my suspension set-up.
Both days are good for me Kev but Sat looks better.
We hav'nt done that mad route for a while, but usualy cops galore along that final road to On Yer Bike.
Where we meeting ?

Out of interest, where's that Craig? I've often thought about having mine checked / fettled but the big names (eg MCT) are all a bit distant.

Sorry Kev I can't make this one, I'm travelling on business Saturday to Friday. Looking forward to the Oxon rideout on the 1st thought.

Ride safe.

Best regards,

James

Well that was well worth the £40. For years I thought nothing was wrong with it, it was only when I rode a DD bike that I relised how bad the 996 was set up. Funny how things seem normal if you do not know.
Anyway the front was rock solid and the rear needed making a little softer. After he finished I went back the way I came and thought I'd taken a wrong turn as I remembered the road there was as bumpy as hell. Damm what a difference, first corner and she was so more reactive and smooth. The front and rear work together now and hard braking is more controlled. Mind you I do get more of a feeling of the rear lifting up on hard braking now.
Was worth it but will be better to get someone now to fine tweek it at a trackday or raceday.

Right after problems trying to get on any website for the last 7 hours somebody somewhere has sorted what ever the problem was.

So lets plan on meeting up Sunday morning after the Clocks have jumped forward an hour ride over to Ducati Aylesbury and then after head back to H-Cafe for late lunch

So depending on whos coming we need to decide a time and place to meet

I'm getting bike taxed this morning so up for a ride. Don't know who else will fancy it, so could either meet H cafe or Newbury??
