Ha ha. Good job she is tucked away in the shed. She would have gone in the huff with that remark.

I like the screen. I'll hit you with sticks if you ride around with the headlight covers on though.

Would that be ****ty sticks

I don't know..... I keep changing my mind about them. I'll sleep on it and decide tomorrow. Probably bring them along and get your view on them when you see them in the flesh.

I made a camera mount for the wing mirror tonight. Don't know if it works. But the first version looked like a front wing Very stylish.

Thats me back, safe, sound and would have been dry if it hadn't been for that flood that jumped at me when going over the hill.

Personally I like the screen but not the headlamp covers. I think you should shelve the covers and keep the screen. But thats just my opinion its what you think that counts. on another note if you were riding at night you would need to remove the covers cause the polis would spot you a mile off

erm, grich running round in his boxers almost jumping onto my bike/tent. the bbq last night was awesome, oh and I got a bit wet bringing a one man tent, forgetting I need somewhere for luggage. did I mention that this one man tent leaks more than a wet sponge.

Your tent is exactly as good as my wet weather cornering Legendary.

I decided to copy Nutty from last year and ride back with a deadly hangover. Ended up having to stop because I was sure I was going to throw up, then blacked out over a table in Gretna services for about an hour. Then rode the rest of the way home dodging lightning bolts.

So, obviously, GREAT weekend. Even the soaking-wet parts ended up being mostly fun. Very good indeed. On the whole i prefer sunshine though, we'll need to work on that next year and hold it in portugal or something.
