I don't normally, as Bassetts Pole is my usual Tuesday haunt (slightly nearer to me) but if a few people are up for going I'll come along!

Hiya kid, I take it your bike is black? I was following you as you turned left near Leicester Uni? That's my route to work most days (well, when i don't take the scenic route via a twisty country lane or something!)

Looked quite clean and tidy, was that the £2200 bike that was in the Bike shop in oadby that you mentioned?

And as for almost clatter, mate, you'll never survive on the track if you think that a 2 metre gap at 5mph is close! Wait until you have a Gixxer hugging your hugger!

hehe, was just playing.
I heard you coming :P.
Yea, i work just round the corner from the uni.
take that route same time every morning.
The bike was 2500 from Spenders in kibworth, I've since added the R&G's and Hugger.
Next up is a nice loud fuel can i think.
Wish i could take a scenic route, The town run can be a nightmare.

That's a good price.

The noise is from the Quill exhaust, which, for a toally road legal can, is really quite nice! Scares the smeg out of the chap next door when I start her in the morning!

Work is only 2 1/2 miles from home, i take the scenic route via any village out of town some days, which basically means i go for a hoon around before the run into work, gets the day off to a flying start!

Mines a 99 V hence it was a lot cheapoer than that! but it is yellow and that's what counts (eh hovis!?)

Wouldn't mind some lowers for mine, but curvy pearl yellow fairings are getting quite rare nowadays!

Haven't seen it properly, but have seen loads of smoke going past our office window and stinking us out!
Have heard that it was coming from either Rackhams or the new Shires development?

Yes I've seen it, had to leave my damn lunch half finished to go out to it! Stupid job interfering with lunch!

Polystyrene blocks caught a spark, plenty of lovely dioxins and CO. sort of like riding along behind a Volvo!
