As a teenage apprentice in the mid 70's, I decided at some stage to participate in one of the now famous CND marches in London. At the same time, I was more than a little infatuated with an attractive lass who rode alongside of me on my ride to polytech each day - on her shocking pink Vespa, with boots, gloves, helmet and catsuit to match. I didn't go along to this march because I wanted to end nuclear weapons; I went because Diane asked me to go with her, and to share her hotel room. We split when ...
So I have a new enthusiasm for the Tape Worm!! Not that I needed much more, but there you go. So after Bert and I had a minor brake issue in the enduro, but Mumford Luck would have it that they are now better than ever!!! It would seem that because the caliper is different to the forks, and I've made a new mount to join them together, that when the caliper is mounted in it's new position, there is a spot for an air bubble to sit somewhere inside. I've be struggling with spongy front ...
On Tuesday November 17th 2009, 9,500 of my friends and I made history. This happened because a few people said ‘enough of the lies, let’s go tell them we don’t agree’ and BRONZ, Ulysses, WIMA, and HOG all came along to ensure the word got out. And get out it certainly did! We took the largest group ride in NZ and we took it from the ends of Aotearoa to the steps of the seat of the New Zealand Government, and we said in one voice, bullshit. We had over ...

With the increasing price of gold, and reported mine profits increasing, I must wonder why? I actually know the answer to that...The HR managers performance budget is directly ...
My pride and joy was useing oil like drinking it. After only 2 race meetings my CBR1000RR used 1.7ltr of oil!! I read up on Spectro Oils and decided to run it on a full mineral oil and after 3 race meetings running in both Clubmans & F1 I changed the oil I rode 2585km incl training and used only 0.145ml off oil Stunning result!!!! I have now gone to Spectro Gold Synthetic and will see how that performs. I would strongly reccomend Spectro oil to anyone. It seems that the ...

The parts arrived I was expecting them to take 3 weeks but it only took 2 so I'm happy with that. Took them around to Brent's place along with some gasket paper and I spent an evening cutting out gaskets and occasionally holding things while Brent started reassembling the engine. We only did a couple of hours work but we got the piston reattached to the crank and the clutch reassembled and put back in (very easy to fark that up). I'm so glad that ...
