Sunny Rutland!!!

[Rich]

Went up to stay with me dad last week in Notts, couldn't have picked a better week weather was cracking and we spent most of our time out on the bikes.

Took a few pics while at Rutland Water to share with you all, some nice roads up round that way.











The money shot

One last piture, just to finish off my week nicely. Travelling back today somewhere i must have picked this up,,, a bloody gert off nail , brand new tyre done 800miles, so thats pi$$ed me right off. I've done loads of filtering today so my guess is i've picked it up off the ****ty parts of the road.



Was supposed to be going out on a ride with Gid tomorrow aswell, sorry to Gid for messing you about. Got to get it sorted for next weekend now before the GP rideout!!!

Great week rounded off with a nail in the rear!!!

Being a fair weather biker helps and keeping on top of the dirt, didn't clean them properly all week just got the flys off. Gave it a good clean when i got back though, bloody nails!!!

Not sure about plugging it, I know it should be fine plugged but id prefer a new one. I'll take it to me garage and see what they can do for me.

ok, get a new one and I'll have the old one then.... I'll pay the postage.... teehee, I'm not proud.

i was gonna say exactly the same thing ..

i rode with a plug in with no problems..

Looking good (Apart from the nail )

You've spent a fair few pennies on that bike to be fair

A plug will be fine - you can do a trackday on a plugged tyre..! They can last for the rest of the tyres life. Matt had a nail through his and got it repaired by essential rubber..So dont write off the plugging option so soon

[EDIT] great pics btw, shiny shiny bikes

Get it plugged, it'll be fine.
