Woke at 9.30 and couldn't get back to sleep. Now sat with a cup of tea, thinking I'll have a lazy morning before I join a group of local canicrossers for a run this afternoon.

Saw this on a T-shirt yesterday:

Eat well
Exercise lots
Die anyway.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Early bed tonight then :-)

Had a good night out at my mates ,50th some beer was consumed, and some dancing ensued. Got up at 9, slightly worse for wear, but no hangover

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Definitely an early night coming up Mav!

No hangover is a bonus then. I have no tolerance for alcohol, a single pint of beer is as much as I can cope with. Two pints is a guarantee of a hangover.

Had my run this afternoon, in good company, and feel much better for it.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Blimey, slept in after 7.30 today, must have needed it.

Helped knowing there's no school run to do as its half term.

Still wandering round tired, must have been all that Dad dancing we did :-)

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Ah, so that's why the supermarket was full of badly behaved little gits this morning. Was wondering why they weren't in school. Once you don't have kids at home any more you tend to forget the dates to look out for.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Yep I went shopping today, place was rammed

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Half term here (and it would seem over the border in Shropshire) doesn't start till the end of this week. I guessed that some places have started though as the main road for the coast was full of camper vans, caravans, and people carriers today.

Evening all!

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Evening sir

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Finally feel like I'm catching up on sleep now. Several early nights seem to have done the trick after three very late ones last week.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread

I'm struggling with bikes atm as the only bike I'm strong enough to ride and is road legal is the Van Van. the Striple's chain holed the crankcase when the chain split in Scotland a few weeks ago so needs a full strip, this of course is taking me a long time. Hopefully be back on it in early spring.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

What time you working till then Andy.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Bugger!! Didn't realise it had done so much damage!

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Aye it's only about half an inch but I dont know if there's any dirt or dirty casing in the sump. Bottom casing and I know a very good Ali welder, so it's really just a time problem. I stopped the engine straight away so I'm sure that's OK.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

What a pain in the arris though!

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

I've just been chatting to Mrs LOM and she said mid sentence "it was my fault". Thirty Three years and I've never heard that one. Still no doubt it will change.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

About 12 last job is the MiL from the airport That's a new one. So a proper job on the motor

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

yep, going to take me a while. The bloke who owns the welders next to my workspace is a wonderfull ali welder and has done a few jobs for me. So "just" need to get it into bits.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

"it was my fault"

Isn't that written into a bloke's wedding vows ?

btw: Good Morning All :)

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Morning all.

Decided today was a good day to take Hugh for a (probably) final blast before the salt starts to appear down here. Was heading for a bike shop caff when I remember I was meant to be staying in for a parcel delivery. Ooops. Ended up as a nice circuit of 30 miles instead of the planned 80 but hey ho. No card through the door so I got away with it. Yay!!

Brimmed the tank ready for layover just before I got home and went to add some ProFST as a stabiliser when I was shocked to see fuel almost over the top of the filler neck... It must be very cold in the underground tank at the filling station and of course it had warmed up a lot sitting over my warm engine and it expanded. More than I thought it would! Good job I filled up on the side stand and I use the centre stand in the garage. Should be fine once it cools down.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

wish i could go out on the bike :smt089

roll on the spring :bounce:

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Soon be here. Cannot wait either. What's the latest on the ticker?.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

i'll know more after the 7th nov. my specialist at the vic could not say much as he needs the results from the specialist in edin. they are more concerned about the narrowing of the left/right iliac artery's where they join the aortia in the stomach. once they fix that then they will fix the one in my heart but only when the clot has dissipated to an acceptable level.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

So R n R as best you can till then. After that you'll be the Bionic Bibio.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

If he can wait, Yamaha are making one, I know its a Yamaha :p

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Good job I got my shorter-than-planned ride in yesterday as I saw a gritter in Wycombe today. So one of my jobs this weekend is to give Hugh a wash and wax, tidy the garage and tuck him away until spring. Probably for the best as I used my last pair of earplugs yesterday too.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

sounds like a good plan Trev..

bloke across the back said i can put my bike in his garage (get your filthy mind out the gutter folks) over the winter as it will give him something to polish... suits me just dandy :-)

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
