It just goes to show how small so many peoples knowledge of the UK is. Matlock, Devels Bridge, North Wales, Skegness. Now enjoy the next 3 weeks of sunshine then back to rain
Great weather forecast tomorrow, have thoroughly cleaned the bike and it's looking its best, think I'll have a ride out and meet up with that nice lady I've been chatting to on BM, maybe meeting up at a local biker café and...…………………………….GOD, is that the time? better get up an get going and I was having such a nice dream...…...OH BUGGER!!!!!!!
Yes thanks to all the key workers keep safe. Now for the grumpy old man gripe......... Ive been working seven days a week so this year decided to reduce work to the five day week joined this site with the aim to meet new friends go to meets and events at the weekends. Then the Chinese make something for once that hasn't fallen apart as soon as you receive it, And this is the state the world is in. gripe over. looking forward to us all being active sooner rather than later and meeting and chatting at events.
Got a text from the chemist's to say my monthly prescriptions were ready. Checked the Strom over and got geared up. It felt absolutely brilliant, no traffic, a nice breeze through the helmet vents.... absolutely priceless.
That is until I got home and found a screw right through the back tyre, bugger!!!
I'm getting all those jobs done round the house so I'll have more free time when we do eventually get our freedom back. Work from home, so bike staying chained up. Don't want to risk being another impact on our critical services folk (heroes)
I've had a plug in the back tyre of my car for the last couple of years although they've not been quite that fast, however bike tyres are a bit different. There is a British Standard BSAU159f which states that a repair can only be made up to 25% either side of the centre line and only up to 3mm and only once on a V rated tyre.. I have been unlucky on 2 of those! But cheers for the thought. D
I guessed as much and I won't be risking it. Anyone want a 150/70 17 Bridgestone Battleax A40 with barely 1000 miles and only one hole? If you don't remove the screw it's holding pressure! Just don't lean too far to the left....
