Wotcha.

My Bullet ended up coming home on the back of a recovery wagon . . . . . Took the Bullet for MOT yesterday - passed, but my friendly tester pointed out my rear sprocket was worn and had a broken tooth. Right - off I went to get a new chain and sprocket - came back and fitted 'em.
Today I decided to pop over to Yeomans and see if they had a left hand footrest for my damaged B31 - yes they did.
Seeing as it was a decent day, I took the Bullet over the top of Romsley rather than sit on the motorway. Got to the island at Halesowen and my clutch cable snapped. Bugger ! Being of the old school of biking, I carry spare cables and a toolkit. . . . . what I don't carry is a spare leg. Yes - once again this bloody injury caught me out. There was no way I could kneel down and fit the cable into the gearbox. I ended up being bought back home on the back of a lorry - not due to the bike being broken, but a case of the rider being broken.

Hmm - maybe time to work on a hydraulic clutch. . . . . p.s. Cable now fitted, back up and running. Should be there Sunday morning - weather permitting

Alan is it this Sunday 17/06?

Hi all-----------yes LEE B, this SUNDAY, 17th JUNE, 2012. Due to the poor forecast for North and Central Wales we'll probably have to opt for a shorter run. Final decision over breakfast at Quatt.

Hi guys ------------ just to confirm tomorrow's meeting at the Biker Cafe, Quatford for Breakfast--then decide what destination depending on the weather at the time. BBC forecast in Shropshire generally appears to be bright with showers---warm all afternoon. Departure for 10.00am as before.

Wotcha.

Well - we never actually got wet.
Took a look at a collection of worn out, broken and crashed relics - ( but enough of the bikes ) at Sleap Airfield.
