Yamaha off road experience (long)

Much like flook, really.

 

I'll not be taking a big heap of expensive air filters, I'll just have
a couple of washable ones plus a can of whatever oil they need
spraying with and that'll be it.

Easy life.

 

I'm not ruling it out but it all depends on what happens with house
prices over the next 12 months.

Out at Penkridge so only sort of near W'ton, something to do with
Chambers MX shop. I've not been yet but was talkign with the ppl in
the shop and they mentioned it. If you go on the A449 towards
Stafford, it's on the paintball site just past Penkridge.

I didn't know about the one near Telford.

After Cadwell I might put the wet weather tyres on the CR and go fall
over a lot off road. ;-)

Er yes... and no. )

The mind is willing, but the body is a fat lump of lard at the moment.
I need to get some training in before I attempt to tangle with it again.
ISTR the last time I was unfit *and* hungover to hell[1]... it won.


[1]Drank a bottle of whisky at a party at Champ towers in Cheltenham the
night before. Then rode up (still a bit squiffy) to Preston to play with
Flook's rabid dog of a CR500 supermoto. **** but I felt ill that day.

 

Didn't look too bad then considering.

Heh. Smiling through the pain.

What a trooper ;-)

 

Sontaran trooper, by the looks of it.

Are you related to Kiran Soar?

Alcohol followed by irresponsible hooning. I'd be in for the next one
if it happens.

I know I know. Life's been manic this year for us.

Three weeks ago we we're burgled during the night. We were asleep and
never heard a damn thing! Cleaned out the usual stuff from the living
room plus my bike and Sarah's car. Couldn't GAF about the stuff but
it's really affected this kids which is what seriously pisses me off.

On a "positive" note the three insurance companies [1] have been
absolutely superb getting us sorted with good settlements within just
two weeks.

[1] Bennetts (Aviva) for the bike, Sheilas Wheels for Sarah's car and
Churchill for the home

 

Drop me a line with a valid email address and you'll be kept informed
regarding the off roading stuff and (possibly) the TT next year.

That's shit. I'm on jury service this week and next and my one hope is
that I get a bike thief so I can just have a quiet kip then find the
**** guilty.

 

Funnily enough I've now got it via the NACL.
