PaleBlue Rugby, 11 Sep 2011 11:25 Took it out to sample the local roads and confirmed in the process that the stator has had it
Peppe Oxfordshire, 11 Sep 2011 18:57 switched her on after 2 weeks (got an alibi, I was abroad) then got tempted and rode around the basement, did a wheelie and scared a neighbour!
Dale south yorkshire, 11 Sep 2011 21:31 Took the lead weights off the back in preparation for the gp style carbon job and gave it a good clean, first proper clean in 6 months

alx Sydney, 14 Sep 2011 03:25 Disassembled the instruments and finally got to the 2 dead bulbs that I hadn't bothered changing in 10 years (found the speedo useless anyway compared with a digital readout assisted by LED light at night).

Chococat Hurt,sad,angry,again, 20 Sep 2011 01:25 Started cleaning it after making the mistake of trusting a weather forecast yesterday. Five hours so far, at least as much again to do. c!$%ing weathermen
Andy Newbury, 20 Sep 2011 09:47 Ade, doubtless your bike is a shinig testament to your cleaning skills, but 10 hours to clean a bike, isn't that bordering on OCD ?
The Dutch Porridgewog Gelderland, 20 Sep 2011 12:33 No it isn't, yes it is, no it isn't, yes it is.............
Fretmeister Moaning about bikes, 20 Sep 2011 13:37 Bordering on insanity, but it gives him something other than money, cars and wimmin to moan about.
