yes i are hardcore, thats how i clean my bike.
was i sticking to the speed limit? :shh:

had a cracking ride through the snake, buxton, matlock, woodhead etc... was up on top of hyde moss is it?
someone's bike broke down :lol:
alarm wouldnt reset... after ringing recovery after a hr arsing about trying to fix it, a guy pulled up an a ktm duke, so i asked him if he had same alarm....
ah he said, it wont reset will it???? its that mast. roll it down the hill and it will work.
sure enough. it did!
see what happens when you buy these fancy flash bikes.... :roll:
kev's sp is gorgeous btw - absolutely outstanding (but you cant hear it over mine lol)
was sposed to be a few out but ended up just me, cheeky kev & ads and stueo from nwb on his new er6 - had a good day tbh, sun was out in matlock & i was regretting taking the textiles, but glad of them on the way home cos it pissed down proper once i got past mcr :?

matlock bath - usually it's rammed with bikes here at weekend... probably 20 - 30 there today. pussies.
(my bike was mingin by this point, was nice & clean and shiny when i set out lol)

its surprising the power some masts kick out, one of the MF sites i go to regularly has radio 5 live playing on the 5 bar gate,

SP looking good there kev :thumbup:

good call with the radio interferance dropping ot the alarm. there was a similar problem in the new underground carpark in Solihull, the AA noticed that they were being called out to by owners of new renaults which wouldnt start.............turns out the transponders under the parking space [to tell you how many spaces are left] were knocking over the imobilisers..............and that is despite the EMC testing for automotive electronics being so strict now, still find summat new to surprise us!

Looked bang on the limit to me officer...

I was on the way to ride my brothers new bike back from Chorley for him as he didn't fancy the rain.

Nice day for it :)

Oh and it looks like Holmes Moss that does...
