Only wet on thursday but then dry and bright for the weekend again.

Anyone for a rideout over the weekend?

Although I have this feeling that I may be stuck in a car on the way to Devon before then

Depends on my chain and my tyres... my chain is being a hoe and my tyre is very low.. not to mention front brake pads being low... .xD

It's like £40 for the pads (Fit myself) and £180 for chain&sprockets+fitting.. and a new tyre+fitting will likely be £120 or so..

It's nice to be able to get out and enjoy the roads of an evening, spent much of the day on a Street Triple whilst the ST was being serviced fun but wouldn't buy one,
