I haven’t managed to ride a bike like that recently Steve, but you are right, the glasses have to be positioned just so and preferably frameless. Was tempted to get lasered after Peter T had positive results but too late now I think.
I have contacts when riding but hate taking them out and have used them less and less I bought some oakley Cross links they fit under an AGV pista easily and don't move or block my vision
Watching WSB and struggling to stay awake because there is fuck all else to do but world super sport is about to start, it usually is good racing!!
Up earlyish for a Sunday and cycled into work for 8am, a few hours work and a bit of finance maintenance after payday. Then a nice ride back and past a house I'm going to put an offer in for on Monday, and managed to get home in a record time of 23 minutes! Pretty chuffed with that as in March when I started cycling to work the first time I made it all the way home without stopping was in 31 minutes! Now got a nice afternoon of WSBK & F1.
Been out with some friends (DOCGB members) from 8.30am. We took in the Isle of Skye road from Holmfirth to Greenfield, then over to Glossop, Snake Pass, then finally over the Strines back to Holmfirth. Some good, twisty and quick roads Been back a couple of hours and the V2 is washed, dried, polished and back in the garage
Checked the tightness of all fixings after fitting and running the 620ie with its much lighter Carbon Delkevics.
I thought about hovering by the nearby bins but at 40c with swarms of wasps I decided against it!! .....better in the shade by rusty shed door was next best option! ......there are plenty more bin pics with this bike if you look in my posts!
Said Goodbye to the daughter, which always leaves a lump in the throat but off to Greece for work. Kind of bored of travelling already....
DIY duties today. Conveniently I ran out of fixings so “popped” down to Homebase, .... on the Pani R. After riding Triumphs for the past couple of weeks my god what an absolute animal that bike is. Love it.
went to see @brettski and his much better half.. we had a nice little pootle about which was...errr.. nice.. lol.... went to some cafe somewhere which was also nice.. @brettski was nearly culled on the way which wasnt so nice although it would have left jo all to me.... all and all not a bad day..
Fitted the Oberon clutch slave, made a bleed pipe out of a bit of old clear pipe and a schraeder valve. And bled the air out. Filled the slave with dot4 before connecting the union, makes bleeding a whole lot easier. Clutch feels so much lighter, and have a spare slave cylinder.
