You don't have to stay distant from your bike, it's just people....

Took Custurd off it's overnight charge & it reluctantly started... Left it ticking over for a bit, whilst I rumaged around in the charger department & found a lead to bolt on to save faffing with crocodile clips... Sorted that out.

De-flyed Nue Red from yesterdays non runout without Tony...

Emptied out the old (storage) gas, put fresh in, fired it up and went for my first (albeit short) ride of the year... Love my bike!!!!

That's better, I'm a sucker for a nice flask.






They make great hiding places for a spare nitro bottle.

Today I didn't have a visit from Vanstub who wasn't riding his CBR Dog.

The rear of which wasn't hanging on very well, didn't sort that out...

After he didn't leave as he wasn't here anyway, I cleaned, adjusted & lubed Custurds chain & adjusted the chain on NueRed.

Ordered a quadlock phone mount kit to fit onto the bars.
Confusing website, I don't know if the kit includes the bit to glue onto the back of my phone.
I'll have to see what turns up.

Can't see why they'd sell only half a kit....

I have a Quadlock Tony, took a while to find the bits I wanted as I was being tight. I bought an iphone Quadlock case off of eBay secondhand for about £15, a Quadlock ball mount from the same place, a cheap Ram ball copy that can be fitted via a bolt to either the handebar risers or anywhere with an M8 bolt and then a gizmo that connects to both balls (oo-er), again cheap RAM copy. All works well, and the phone is very secure when riding

Went for a long, lazy blast to Brighton, lovely ride and nice chippy lunch by the sea.

Removed the front sprocket and cleaned all the old grease and grime off.
I always use kerosene for jobs like this, have never been a fan of chemical de-greasers.
Checked the chain slack, all the fluids, tire pressure, brake pads, lights. It was all fine - like yesterday...

Stormed into work...

Seems to be much more traffic out there again...

Yep.
I was in London yesterday, then up to Harrow and Northolt, back down to Chelsea and then to Dartford, delivering office chairs to staff working from home. Comfy Aircon all the way, but traffic was back to the normal level. It took nearly 3/4 of an hour to get down the Old Kent Road through Blackheath to the A2.

It took all day. Bloody 20 mph limits.
