    Did just short of £200 miles and 7 hours out on the bike today, visited Crescent Suzuki and drooled over some of their race bikes whilst one of the guys put a deposit on a KTM Super Duke R and then promptly broke down on the way back on his KTM SM990 when his soft link went 'ping'. The chain held together so no damage done, he just needs a new link.

    Picture of Crescent bikes to follow…….

    Yeah plenty of sf6's but there indoor I spend most my time on 132kv and 410kv outdoor gear :D , don't like SF6 , or working in small underground subs , too many things could go wrong , plus these pictures are from a old 132kv compound , brand new one being built and should be commissioned in June ,

    There should be a Spies owners club.
    Can you let me know how you get on with yours as I wore mine for the first time last week and it buffeted like crazy past 120. It reduced a little with the top vents open, but I wondered if it was cos I was wearing big textiles.
    I also couldn't stop the pin lock insert fogging up with the visor closed, although it was cold.

    Where about do you live Shane ? I know Calpe quite well having once lived in Moraira which is only about half an hour away. Is that little shoe shop still on the square in Benissa. I spent many a relaxing hour in the bar opposite sipping cold beer from frozen glasses whist my ex wife spend the kids inheritance on shoes she didn’t need and sometimes never even wore.

    Nice one Shane. As you say only five minutes down the road from Moraira. Cant say I know really know Benitachell other then we used to drive through it, turning left at the cross roads on the way to Javea, which as you probably already know is also a nice place to go in the evening, wander along the front and find somewhere to eat and watch the world go by. We were on Calla Haya but higher up the hill than the Swiss Hotel. We had very nice views down on Moraira. I couldn’t find any pictures without my either my ex or the kids but I am sure you will recognise the views all be its from a few years ago. Jus for the record my oldest is now 21 and the youngest is 17, so that tells you how long ago these photos where taken.I think its was about 2003 ish.
