the latter N, will take pictures of them all and post tomorrow. I did come back wearing a smile and neck ok so far.
My old man used to use a flymo years ago. Until both blades snapped off and broke his legs at the shins. He had to crawl 50 metres up the garden to get my mother to take him to the hospital.
Just to much running over stuff that didn't want to be cut which weakened the blades. Plus the older flymos had plastic (?) casings which provided no protection against shrapnel
Yesterday 8 of us went to Campbeltown with @finm . We had lunch outside Today’s ride is to the Green Welly to meet with Scottish Ducatisti for an hour then a couple of hundred miles with lunch around Crieff I think.
Travelled a long way to go to "Wheels and Waves" in Biarritz yesterday...total waste of time... Lifestyle event..hmmm.. beards, tattoos and posturing... Shame. Still today decided to spend the day blasting around the Pyrenees...canny place. Edit: 350km of very twisty roads later... I can hardly walk. Going to have to do something about my flexibility issues...
Well I'm now stuck on my own in Crieff. My bike has been pissing oil all over and is unrideable. I've cleaned the excess off as best as I can but can't really tell where it's coming from. Sump plug is my best guess at this stage.The back tyre was covered in oil. I've no idea how I didn't come off as we've been riding in a spirited fashion all morning! The tour leader has gone back to get the support van from Arrochar and will collect me and it around 4pm hopefully. Then it's home in the van tomorrow with the guy with the smashed up shoulder :/
I know what's like breaking down, a bloody inconvenience, next time make sure you tip the technician proberly.
Piss poor spannering it would seem at first read clearly there are stages of spirited if you’ve survived an oil covered tyre. Support van!!! were you all riding Ducati ?
Early 6:30 start out to Aberystwyth back for 12:45, sleep then clean the KTM and fettle the push irons ready for tomorrows training ride. Weather was much improved late afternoon.
Went to Brighton, had lunch then went in the BA flight thing. Now enjoying a couple of beers on the patio with some snacks.
I eat under 1000 calories a day during the week. And burn 1800 calories in the gym & swim 6 times a week.
