Kev, I dare you to pull Dallas for not having his rear caliper pad retaining pin lock wired.

Just remind him of Pembrey 2011.

Does it need to be lockwired? Or are you just making me even more nervous?

Sump plug, oil filter and something else on the side is lockwired. What else should be?

Pembrey 2011 can't recall what happened there with Dallas, that was the bike he had off Jimbers if I recall correctly, Where he suffered running problems all year.
It was there in 2010 that I believe it was Andy Challis that had a rear brake jam on causing the Scrutineers to take a closer look at the rear pad retaining system and wanted to see the pins with the E-clips replaced with something less likely to come adrift, hence me buying a pack of Long M5 Allen bolts and M5 Nylocks.

Possily then Kev. It was the fact that he got pulled and I was right behind him in the cue and didn't, oh the look on his face. Classic.

Ar, the pleasures of organising and being responsible. Boring thankless job, but then peolpe are paying for it with their entry fees and membership.

Been there, done that, no thanks.

See you all there tomorrow hopefully before the first session

...and all being done by people who don't get paid to do that job and use their own free time to get stuff organised?

Yeah, it sucks sometimes!

Yep it can and it does. Gotta be for the love of doing it, like scouting or other non work activities

Often appreciated, rarely articulated
