I then couldn't get the bike fixed in time for the next round so missed a race. Then following round the alternator failed on my van and finally the grid was full at Brands so figured someone was trying to tell me something!!

I then used the bike as a track toy at Brands for the rest of the year, so I know my way around. Also then went on to sell the bike to Jolley so I have known Jolley (and his bike) for a while, so all the banter is a bit of a joke really!

As if by magic...........
