I'm not surprised you gave him a good send off and looked after his family, I'm just pissed off I missed it. You all are awesome.

Posted here as all the regulars will see it.
It was a sad time, but the send off and the good will that came from all areas was truly touching. If you join us on the welsh run this year you will be able to spill beer on his bench. :thumbup: :beer:

Seat hump went black today, very pleased with the result from a can, the old 'warm it up in a bucket of hot water' trick never fails!

Going to get a proper paint job when funds allow, but thinking I will probably rattle can it into some semblance of respectability in the mean time.

Put my cans back on, spackened & lubed chain, fitted a clear double bubble MRA screen (which is ACE! And I can see through it)

Checked tyre pressures and fine tuned front/back suspension

Wahhhooo!!!
