    OK tomorrow, weather permitting I will be there. (the crowd groans - not again)

    It certainly was interesting looking at the different bikes last week.



    Caseye, don't forget to check/bring those items you said would fit and if possible check the bar size



    and for youse others, time to clean those bikes, done on the gear and go for a ride.

    bring on the good weather....

    I am still at work and its raining.....

    so it will be sorting out some more bike stuff when I get home or the couch aye!

    see you next week for me.

    spent most of the evening working at work, so much gets completed when there’s no interruptions.

    hope you guys managed to get a ride in....

    Hopefully going to drag the old girl out and give her a bang!









    one of the lights is intermittent and I know there is a problem with the supply to the headlight. Sometimes bright(as much as I can expect from a std bulb) then dim-the usual low voltage dirty yellow.
    nah not fixed yet, bugger.
    got an old project started again, first time, summer is here again

    now to finish both projects.... plenty of time to sort additions

    Yeah low air pressure can be a bugger.
    Reminds me to check tyre pressure more often and this weekend would be a good start.

    Good night for a cruise it was. And that's what we did.
    Prawn sticks, chips sipping on a cool drink while watching the sunset at leather fave watering hole.

    Lots of small road works everywhere. Loose stones not the best.

    Good ride for those generally couch ridden

    did enjoy watching Caseye tip toeing all about the place with his new tyres.

    It had only been a week since checking the pressure and it was low last time but it had been 3 weeks since the previous check.... and was not nearly as low. Will check where the leak is, if its the valve it could have sudden loss of air if used!

    Good point, I used to do it weekly, now I do it weakly.
    i used to know what pressure the front and rear etc.

    now I got no idea, maybe I wrote it down, too tired to look.

    sudden loss of air on the back not too bad, the front OMG. From my own experience
