nothing this weekend because I was Skiing...............3 great days and one average day, I dont recommend skiing in low visibility with a hangover
but we had 2 days of blue sky and sun and some great slopes above 1700m and north facing, the lower south facing slopes are heading to slush because of the heat.
and now I have to try and catch up with everything that has been happening on here.

Today I rode to work (as the forecast looks sh1te for the next few days). Cleaned the grime off the rear wheel coz even black wheels look crap when theyre dirty. Then rode home. Taking a variety of exhaust cans to work in the car tomorrow ready to sort/fit some sort of system on Sunday.
Probably going back to two into two, but not sure. I dont like the thought of all that extra weight

so had it blasted again and it's off to painters again

Scottish skiing is too fecking extreme for me, I went to Austria with a few Germans from work. Turned out I was the 2nd worst skier but the best drinker. Another winter Olympic gold to team GB

Stripped the front forks. New seals, oil and springs (thanks Budd). Followed the guide on here and did the mods to the damper rod etc. Rubbed the forks down and gave them a few coats of brilliant silver. Lacquer tomorrow.
Just the carbs to set up and balance next and its ready for an not :-)
