    Yer a gentleman and a scholar. Right, well I guess I'll spend Saturday removing the indicators and mirrors then. The bulbs all rattled apart on the long ride back from our Nth Canty wanderings last year, and I haven't found a shop that stocks orange bulbs yet.

    Repco here stocks orange bulbs, plus a selection of orange sleeves for plain bulbs.

Will see what other interesting roads/tracks I can find as well.

    Meet at the Peg at 9am. I'll contact DOC re the gate though it sounds like it can be ridden around.

    Cheers Ryan
    That's the Belfast Tavern (for those of you who haven't learned that one yet) up there on the left just before Dickeys Rd and the Northern Motorway.... at 9am.

    My goodness, it's Rip van Pinky, awakened after some months of slumber. Remember your password, did you? Seriously, I was actually about to text you to see if you were keen for Sunday.
