Saturday 16th ride
Met up with Chris, Paul, Nick, Neil, Tommy, Sheep and Owen in Bronllys for an old fashioned TRF stylee trail ride
Not sure if Sheep would get this lot past the Barbour jacket brigade though
Then cracked on to make sure we got Taffyboy back in time to avoid the doghouse
Which was all going well until Owen tried to undo years of Honda's work in building a reputation for reliability with a worn out chain and an over active right fist
Then used a bloody KTM pliers to fix it - poor old Soichiro Honda must be spinning in his grave
Now well behind schedule, and with the doghouse getting closer pushed on again
Sheep
Tommy
Paul
Nick
Taffyboy
Owen
Chris
Gorillas (and a serial killer) in the mist
Then the poxy Tubliss gave up the ghost
All the cost of mousses, with the reliability of a Cheng-Shin inner tube - great!
The expression says it all really!
Fair play though that Honda does go well for a moped
Cheers all, and thanks again Chris for sweeping

Rather than a wolf in sheep's clothing, more of a Sheep in wolf's clothing

Cracking day. Seens as it was my last weekend home & wifey had arranged time together all up untill I decided to go out with the boyo's, I managed to evade the doghouse & even got home to a well served homemade curry & a few Cobra beers that she bought me.... good girl.
Hopefully the weather will be ok in September.

Re: Saturday 16th ride
First switch to tubliss...first puncture, like to say I haven't heard that before.....
Think I will even try dropping the psi to 0/4 psi on my road wheels , do you nutters think I will get more grip out of the bends or is that setup just more suited to a large rear sprocket in a carpark like ?
