It's only the chain holding the back-end to the front-end.

+1 credit for Thunderace for good job on the chain deferring the inevitable unicycling demo.

Thanks for reminding me....Yes +1 for Spank...However you were all completely unaware of the log across the road when I issued the warning at the turn-around so -1 for all apart from Spank who is back at zero

More Sunday ride-out credit adjustments.

+1 for all on ride apart from Jammy and I.

Some of you sniggered as I took young Jamster off for a chat and started with "look, don't worry about speed, speed will come once you start to get smooth etc"

You then all carried out a 17 point turn round a blind bend in between all the traffic previously monstered by you lot.

You then parked on the side of the road just past the blind bend opposite the queue of traffic. so far so poor but then....

I think it was Spank who red-lined his luke-warm bike off down the road closely followed by everyone else. The sound was damn impressive (apart from that strange creak from Fallout's frame) and got quiet pretty quickly so I can only assume you all backed off just round the corner explaining the reduced volume rather than keeping it pinned until out of ear-shot which would have taken about 3 seconds! Did some-what undermine the advice but sounded brilliant. + 1 for all and for now we'll over-look the negatives for mechanical appreciation for red-lining bikes that had been parked up for a good 30 mins!

I actually considered that my engine wasn't at optimum operating temperature, so I made sure I only use 95% throttle. Got to baby this thing in it's twilight years.

Less of that talk yours is positively modern compared to mine!

There was a number on the temp gauge.

If it doesn't say low it's getting thrashed.
