Sunday fun

Phew, what a bike influenced weekend that was.

Saturday bimblage with DNC and DWB in quest for superfot route. Drew a
blank as route chosen was crap for fast riders (this had to be pointed out
to me, natch).
Saturday PM trench digging in field to lay electric fence conduit
Sunday scenic tour of the Chilterns with Badger.
Finally got the indicators on the NSR to work (the flasher unit has no poke
at all, and blingdicators really are crap)
Changed the chain on the TS50 (very easy, nice smooth gearchanges now). The
old chain was at limit of adjustment and had 6" of play up and down, and
side to side.
Checked the chain on the Zephyr
Fitted the tank bag to the Zephyr (for EOSM)
Had beers
Slept.

Back to work today (it sucks)

Indeed it does. Despite chucking it in on Friday, the head honcho

[1]Wednesday off though. Got the builders in. Not sure if I'm happy or
not :-/
[2]I'm actually rather relived. Despit the rather dismal pay ATM, I
don't think I could live on statutory benefits just now.

Still sucks a fat one, though.

 

....by DNC, presumably!

 

Both, as it happens

Of course.

Just you wait - when I sell my bike I'll get an i-R1 and then no one will
catch me.

 

I'll be trading down to "just" a 750, which should give you some
chance

 

Heh.

Actually, I think I've cracked a route that'd go down quite nicely.
Who's up for a bimble this evening?

 

Heh, that'll be as per your text, sounds fucking excellent, dunno why I
didnae think of that route on Saturday.

Unfortunately I'm washing my hair tonight ,

what about Thursday
