Thanks dizzy, i'm been in a bit of a shock/daze since friday.........
just wondering what could have happened.
when we stoped at the motorway services, my back wheel was half covered in oil !!!!!!!!!
and up untill then we were using A roads...........and at a good pace.
i could have come off at any right bend since we started the ride 91 miles ago....
And i was TEC, so no one saw the state my tire was like with oil spashing on it..........
after a £520 full service was told it was good to go...(i told then i was going up north).i assumed the bike was ok......
lucky lucky lucky....i think i have used up all my life's...
