    I laughed when it dissappeared although realised that somewhere Drew would have probably needed counselling for it for you cunts all picking on him.
    For a funny guy, you've got fuck all of a sense of humour man.

    While the Pink theme does suit Drew in his quieter moments (I am sure there are one or two) it is, indeed, nasty!

    Yep, but that was always the point of the Pink theme.

    Yup, WELL aware of the chain of (non)command mate ........ you'd imagine that someone involved in 3 of the last 4 would be made aware of any changes in the system, let alone as a Grade 4 Steward AND CoC charged with DOING the job .......

    If it wasn't for the fact that you're dodgy and would take it the wrong way, I'd suggest a drunken get-together and a debriefing session - DEAR GOD, I'm making a picture now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Could be worse, could still be our job ............

    Most club committees will welcome any member who turna up at a meeting. They will normally be pleased that someone is actually interested enough to make the effort. The visitor can request speaking rights if they wish, which may or may not be granted, but they can't vote.

    A couple of YouTube clips worth watching.

    General overview of bike checks.
    Most of the checks are relavant here in NZ. Check them off against MOMS (and your class supplementary rules).
    But they also have some good expectation should should be considered.


    Lockwiring.
    It's simple once someone has pointed out what your are doing wrong...
    Copper wire is not suitable.
    0.8mm stainless steel lockwire should be your minimum size for any safety related lockwiring.
    Note the technique and direction to ensure bolts can't come undone.

    If anybody wants some practicle pointers come and see me. I am happy to help.
    I lockwire stuff as part of my job, so have been doing it for quite some time!

    0.8mm is 32 Thou lockwire. I would argue that brakes need to be 40 Thou.... That is my personal preference though.
    .62mm stuff is okay in some applications...



    Great Stuff though Bert.

    Experience in my other life as a Bonsai nut tells me that Proper lockwire, i.e. annealed stainless, is a joy to use and pretty tough - copper is too brittle unless its annealed, and then its too soft to do the job we need - unless its in massive gauges, probably bigger than you could safely drill the hole !

    Just like with tyres / oils etc ..... get the right stuff and its an investment.

    BUT - get in the habit of picking up all the sharp little bits you snip off, the wee bistards get into all sorts of nooks and crannies, and filling your gloves up with blood in your next race is best avoided where possible
