    I'd expect more myself mate. Especially when it comes to the receipt. Sounds like pocket money to me.

    Let me know what you think of the shock would you mate. I really fancy doing this mod to mine, so I would appreciate your verdict on it.
    After riding with the race shock on my SP1 I really notice the difference in plushness and difference in feel compaired to the shock on the blade.

    Got in at six and some photos to come tomorrow Split with the boys at Hartside With CBR1 and Rushforth who once on home turf turned into Carl "Rushforth" Fogerty .Had a really top ride and the bit from Hartside to the M6 was awesome .The FireBloke AKA The Settle Fox was doubling back for another slice of his favourite Hawes pie! Just about got to the door but have to admit my Arse / legs / knees and wrist where aching not sure how many miles though.

    Glad you took my advice of familiarising yourself more with those roads Mr. Rushforth! Now you need to learn the Hawes road......fancy not really knowing the best route in the North West and it's only a stones throw from where you live!

    Had a great day today, always pleased with the high attendance of us Northern dudes. Weather stayed fine for us and not so much plod knocking about although the one we did see we all overtook!

    Jason on top of Hartside mountain outside the cafe. He does tend to get rather excited on our rideouts...........Bless him.

    The Northern Crew looking on in absolute awe at the Howgill Mountain range.

    And a endearing pic of Giv who still thinks he has the physique of a 22 year old but could barely fit his portly frame between the mountain and his bike!
