Anyone from the M3 corridor or South West going up to the NEC who could pick an oil line up for me? Mav has kindly offered me one but if someone could pick it up, I can then arrange the follow up collection.

Many thanks, Rob

And while you're there, make sure to look at the Harley and Buell stands. Not for the bikes, but the way they are supported. The front wheel is clamped and held in place with 2 wire ropes around the bottom of the forks - there is nothing at the back end, so the bike is still free to rotate around the headstock! In the the time we were at the stands (about 1/4 hour) 2 bikes fell over when people sat on them - 1 Buell and 1 Harley - and you wouldn't want one of those behemoths landing on you or a child.
