Default What a morning!

OK ,left for work this morning weather OK, half way to work and it was chucking it down. I got within 5 mins of work and the bike decided to run on one cylinder! So I get to work and as I had my boots on the outside of my trousers my socks are soaking wet! (They are now in a culture oven drying!) and I'm walking around the lab bare foot!

Can anyone tell I'm new to the wet weather riding?

Oh yeah and I fixed the wet spark plug in my lunch.

Some kind of crazy experiment? What are you hoping to grow?

I just happened to be repairing one today and was the best way I could think of drying my socks fast.

Fenda Extender is on way with some silicone grease!

Ah yes, one cylinder riding was interesting. Why is it thought that they would both cut back in when at a roundabout or junction! The law of sod, I guess.

Fenda thingy pretty much sloves the problem and the grease damn well makes sure.
