Knee down



Dunno yet hon ... it's too soon for the oh-so-reliable BBC weather site

Will have to do some chrimbo shopping at some point (those WH Smith vouchers won't buy themselves!) and am possibly going up to see Carrie's horse with my neighbour next weekend, so may be in the car

Ok...let's see how it's shaping up towards the end of the week. Gotta see if you can get your knee down.

Jamie already tells me you're pretty nifty at getting your leg over. Tee hee.

Very nice euan. Might have to get a trailer and come up there with the bike for a long weekend.

Honestly, or just wishful thinking?

Why would you want a trailer on the R6?

I'm sure you could get enough luggage in a rucksack

Some pics after washing it today:









Oiled the joints and chain, and checked the engine oil and coolant.

Checked the tyre pressures too. 32 and 32, when they're supposed to be 36 and 42!

Can't believe they went down that much in 6 weeks.

Will there be a video of this?

I was a bit worried there might be actually as one of the guys does sometimes have a camera onboard!!
Adey who was behind me at the time said he had just enough time to be very impressed that I kept her upright before thinking "Sh1t! I'm going straight over the top if she doesn't make it!!!"

Top pics there Euan ... I'm afraid that it make our local "scenery" look very dismal indeed!
