He did ....



Looks great but it was a shit road bike to be honest. The suspension was way too hard, the riding position was back breaking and you had to be fully committed to get the best out of it.

Was good an 'A' roads and a handfull on anything else.

The R6 I replaced it with was a much better bike.

2 weeks before more exams mate. (The Nov one, and I might be abroad for the Sept one)

Only put it up there for general info.

I really will try to come along to some next year, but academia has pretty much wiped this year out for me.

I've spoken to my brother and offered (for all of us) to cover his costs to come out and make a proper documentary type thing next year.

Should be cheap as it's the track time that costs the most.

Oh, he spent last year doing a masters in film production something or other

Just take her with you and she won't complain.

Oh, by the way, I will have a window of relatively free time in the next few weeks, so let me know if you guys fancy a ride.
