    Had a cracking weekend out & about, visited the RBLR1000 guys at Squires Cafe Bar on Friday & then spent Saturday & Sunday at Donington Farm Camping at the Horizons Unlimited HUBBUK 2014. All in all a brilliant weekend!

    I did nothing to it, as I tried to wheel it backwards to go to work only to discover
    A BLOODY PUNCTURE
    So I went to work in the family wagon with the raging hump then came home and took the wheel off in the bloody rain.
    There goes the money from my t-shirt sale on a bloody puncture plug (hopefully, as no cash for a tyre)

    They are fine mate, as long as they are not near wall. I have had so many tyres plugged over the years. don't forget they plug from the inside so the plug is under constant air pressure as well as being yanked through the hole and glued.

    All fixed today and application for credit card sorted (so I can buy new ones soon lol)
    Now I'm gonna collapse in front of tv as just finished putting wheel back on after work! zzzzzzzzzz

    Ah right, thought you were doing it with one of those kits you can buy to keep under your seat from bike shops , roughly £35 . Thought about getting one of those but the underneath my seat needs to be a Tardis

    I don't think that's to bad a price for brand new Ohlins rear with a hydraulic preload adjuster? :)

    £550 all in, including delivery, all down to whether they slap me with Import duty/tax?

    anyway you going for another blade for the track then?
