I’m back :woohoo:
Home computer now up and running and out of pocket $255
But all is good
Redders
You are more than welcome mate Seeya tomorrow mornin
Had some issues with a leaky fork through the week but it seems the old feeler gauge trick has done the job
Should be a good one :silly:
Thanks for the extra vest Justo
Cheers

Diddel, I thought you’d be out riding today? You ride every other day don’t you? :laugh: I guess you have to pay for all the fuel some how!

I might try start riding arvos, new placement doesn’t do overtime :angry: but that may depend on whether I can afford this extra riding :laugh:.
Pines only 40-50 min drive so might be do able.

Side note, picked up new rear guard today from work and the sheila operating the counter asked “where will you be riding this motorbike?” Watagans… “*whinge* not butaba” then another shiela chimed in and I walked off.
Many others like her out your way murph?

Hey Diddel
Which shop did you get the guard from???
If it was Toronto it would of been Kylie and she is pretty good at her job
Other than that it was just some random coincidence (spelling)
Keen for tomorrow :woohoo:
Cheers

I’m all packed and ready, I have a yellow vest as well if it’s needed. Hopefully my bike will stay upright on the trailer this time :ohmy:

See you all tomorrow

Just a quick note that we will be running the cornerman system tomorrow
The leader will put his hand up when we need a corner man (ie intersection)
The person directly behind the leader should stop on the corner with his bike facing in the direction intended until he sees the sweep rider and is nodded on :woohoo: It also helps if the new cornerman acknowledges the leaders request with a nod or wave
Both the leader and sweep will be wearing high viz vests so as there is no confusion :blink:
Share the sweep duties around and it will be a great ride for every one
Please let me know if anybody else wants to lead through the day
Lets hope for a fast flowing ride :woohoo: :woohoo:
Cheers

Pinched tube tonight :blush: will try bludge one tomorrow.
2 new rings and 2 new tyres. Held off on doing tyres till tonight so I could do the ring test run on the old ones.
Will need to be decent pace for the required adrenalin for me to stay awake now :laugh:.

Scotties but picked up from local post office.
There was even a reference to “the time of the month”, at this point I was making a break for it :ohmy:.
