What a top weekend it turned out to be :woohoo:

The rain only went skin deep and I only got one leach :pinch:

There’s no way better to get to know your new bike than on three special test sections and a transport section thats as hard as the special tests :woohoo:

Take Mick’s advice and fit a new tyre It will be (and was) very slick in places :laugh:

Thanks to Protty and Mick for the oportunity to see how its all done and for a great weekend for Sam and I

See you all on the 9th. Can’t wait :woohoo:

I knew that my plan to get you along to the KTM ride day would work.:whistle:
Slowly converting OBTs over to the right coloured bike one by one.:laugh:

Mate, that was a quick decision, did you buy it during the minister for finance’s trip away?:dry:

I have to agree with your selection though they are an impressive bike.

Did staying in front of the pack at the sweep ride in september have anything to do with it?

Rebore.

Rebore it was all of the above :laugh:

Staying ahead of the juniors is still going to be a challenge :blush: however at least the 350 will be easier to pickup :whistle:

Ahh the memories. Would have been a top day to ride.Nice report. It seems drowned bikes are the flavour of the week.

Time to trade in the Suzuki Adam?Or just borrow the Kato?

Well as it happens I was riding Sam’s bike to prepare myself for the new 350 EXC. So the Suzuki’s days are now numbered in fact maybe the end of the week :woohoo:

[Adam RodgersMember]

Heading home. Will post report later.

BBQ for lunch tomorrow. Merv just won the meat tray. We’ll have to use a shovel for the hot plate though :laugh:

I’ll call as well, that way we can guarantee you’ll be there as you will have nowhere else to go :whistle:

Maybe you could build a dog house too :laugh:

Adam.

[Adam RodgersMember]

Mick

Sam and I are good to go :woohoo:

The boss is away on some sort of retreat at the moment and isn’t here to ask so we made the excutive decision on her behalf :laugh:

At the moment she owes us brownie points :laugh: But don’t tell her I said that

I always check my bearings when I change a tyre, tube or whenever I have the wheel off. I stick my fingers in and feel the movement of the bearing.

A bearing will last a very long time as long as water and grit stay out and the lubrication stays in.

The oil in grease will wick out through dust so keep them clean, and I grease between the seal and bearing seal to help keep water out and slow the drying out of grease from within the bearing.

After you wash it pays to spin the wheels to listen and feel the spinning of the bearings. If your feeling movement its time to change.

Adam.
