Had to share this with you: (bless my hubby )

Have had problems with my bike mis-handling for quite a while, but 'im-in-the-garridge' (AK) just pooh-poohed the idea - all down to my bad riding (usual comment )

Then I had a tumble the other week - s'ok - no lasting damage
AK then kidnaps my bike to make a late appearance at Brands on Monday lunchtime - and lo & behold, the first thing he greets me with, is:

"How the hell do you manage to ride that"

after a bit of 'discussion' he acknowledges I 'might have been correct in my earlier conversations' after all

No proper tools at the track, so he has to ride her in the same condition back home - through very heavy rain

Tonight? - he fixes said problem - after finding the steering head bearings need major mega adjustment

.......and then goes on to give her a full valet & polish

Bike & me both happy again

Nasty hubby to nice hubby in one evening

what do you mean 'more' Kev? - he lost all the ones he had, with regards to the comments about my riding

Now, if he mows the lawn, trims a big bushy tree in the garden & does some of the housework too, oh - and the shopping this w/end - while I go 'ride-about he can earn some again

No dyno for mrs Snot - she is in more bits than a box of cornflakes
and Andy has the coloured bits - inc the tank for changing colours........
Hopefully back together for AK to do cadwell on, as he isnt borrowing her majesty for it, although she will be on the van that day
