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 affraid

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 Laughing

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

Gorillas (and a serial killer) in the mist  Very Happy

Then the poxy Tubliss gave up the ghost  No

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 cheers

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

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.

First switch to tubliss...first puncture, like to say I haven't heard that before..... Rolling Eyes  lol!

Think I will even try dropping the psi to 0/4 psi on my road wheels Rolling Eyes , 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 ?
