A set every other meeting, same tyres in wet, shouldn't take too much organising

Thanks for all good will.
To me, motorcycle mechanics is a bit like alchemy! My problem is not really the detail like torque settings, tensions, flow rates etc. I still can't get past the fact that the bike is basically made from stuff dug out of the ground, and is filled up with other stuff from the ground, it sticks to the ground with stuff bled from tree and falls over it's when not moving......what's not to understand!
Anyway whatever I am looking forward to it!

Are you referring to underpants?

2 sets of tyres lasted me all season, a 4 day shredding exercise in Spain and still got half my money back off them!


It's not the size of the dog in the fight that matters, but the size of the fight in the dog.
