Took the front wheel of the tenere as I have just bought a few tools to take on trips with me,so I thought I would have a bit of a trial run with it all.

Wish I had left it alone though,because now I cant get the brake pads to open up as I squeezed the brake lever several times till the gap closed :pinch: ::angry: : :blush:

Not knowing what I have done or how to fix it could somebody please point this simple in the right direction
Thanks James

More about what others did to my bike today rather than myself :blush: Both TB and Deejay called in to fix my little error.Great to meet you Deejay,hope you get out on that ride

And TB,above and beyond once again thankyou both very much

Cheers James

:laugh: put a screw driver between the pads James and lever them apart. Do both at the same time. If you get stuck leave it I will be in dural on Saturday and will give you a hand if you want. It’s easier to refit the wheel if you take the calipers of. Easier to open the pads up if you bolt them back on the forks while levering them apart.

Ring me you have my number

TB

Thanks TB,
Shall give it a try,with my limited mechanical skills I am proving to be a danger to myself 😆

Keep picturing the wheels coming off full flight :laugh:

Looking forward to it,starting to get excited now :woohoo:

Becomes more of a reality seeing it in print,thanks for posting it TB

Any idea roughly what time you would expect us to finnish up on day 2 at Lithgow

Cheers James

Hey James,
Don’t rush it champ :laugh: One thing that I do know it that it will probably be a little cool and a cleansing ale will be required

Cheers
Lefty in NZ on route to Paraguay :unsure:

Time to plan a big ride when I get back I reckon :woohoo:
Thanks for the info TB

Nah,
Quite the opposite Lefty, was thinking more along the lines of turning it into a 3 day ride if it was going to be a late arvo finish near dark,rather than ride home settle into the pub,beers stories etc,come home next day.
Just asked the question as the wife usually works Sunday nights so I look after the kids,although I am sure she wont mind not going to work 😆

Mate I have no idea, first run I did I was back in Lithgow before 4 easy, but I only had one stop in 350kms. There were a lot of turn arounds and exploring but :whistle:

Remind me after the last proper prerun in the first week in June

TB

Will do thanks

Good one Chris, when i didn’t pay any attention in high school in music i should have realised it would have been tops to play guitar a long time later and then theres groupies :whistle:

Specially if you have the biggest horn in the band like ECKS :laugh: :laugh: :whistle: :pinch:

[jim cadyMember]

Good stuff Chris,
Wish I had the nerve and talent to do that. :pinch:

Do you do vocals as well or just stick to the guitar and schooners 😆

Cheers James

Hi James, mate I got a taker late last night via PM in Pete The Wulf. As he is one of the leaders for the ride I don’t need to share route and it will be a surprise for everyone riding :laugh:

Let’s go for a casual ride out Capertee in a few weeks without the rip and tear that will be Sunday due to time restrictions :whistle:

TB

Hell and high water can stay put then TB,enjoy the ride

[jim cadyMember]

More than interested TB,If you think I will keep up and not slow you down.

And when do you think you would definitely know if its going to happen so I can move hell and high water to come along 😆

James

[jim cadyMember]

Good stuff TB,awesome pics and story

Thanks for the tool sizes today

James

[jim cadyMember]

I can understand that,one gets the bug just from looking and reading all the RR :laugh: let alone being there.
Good for you

[jim cadyMember]

Looks like there are plenty of good memories you will have for years to come there Ace

Cheers James
