Talking Snap Happy Redruth

Not all of the 80 or so a took, just a selection. I think you'll get the gist. Fantastic time had by all of the BHCN raiders.

More shortly but the server keeps saying 'busy' so am off outside to wash my bike -yes full strip, wash and wax. She did me proud this weekend, the least I can do is give her more the a lick and a promise.

Well yes, I had a little break down in a place I can't remember. It was caused by a dodgy fuse terminal which was not engaged in the fuse block properly and the fuse was only making contact with it by a hairsbreadth...not so good when it's the fuse for the fuel pump.

I had the courtesy to break down right outside a pub...well close enough for me to demonstrate how macho I am by running 20 yards pushing the bike in scorchio heat and full lid and leathers up a pretty steep hill to the pub.

Now I don't know why but Ruth's snap and the ones that Keefy or Marko took (on Gizmo's server) make it look for all the world as if I just stood around drinking lager while the rest of the BHCN massive fixed my bike for me, but I'd just like to say that although there was a lot of helpful advice, a bit of massed prodding and a bit of screw twirling, I did do most of the repair work myself.

You can tell that I did the repair work because of all the bolts that were missing from the fairing when we arrived in Glenridding

Nice to see you and Lily too, John. I rang No Limits this afternoon and spoke to someone called Caroline but she said there's no room in Inters, only Novice, and she didn't want to book me in to novice. I was wondering whether to take a chance and just book it anyway and try to get moved up (assuming I warrant it) but it's a lot of money to spend and then have to ride cautiously to avoid upsetting first timers. I think I'll wait to see if anyone drops out.

I would go for it tbh. Oulton is big enough that worst case scenario you can't move in the first session you will have chance to get used to it.

Gwaaan you know you want to...!!
