Sounds ti me like you could do with a holiday in France… my brakes honked at me yesterday too, and the bike really needs a clean by someone who can be bothered with the details…

Couldn’t help myself had to do it. For any potential snow foamers out there my pump up one shat the bed so I got this one off Amazon for £18, works well but for how long will be the factor. Battery powered.

Just reminded me of a time a customer asked me to road test his Skoda Estelle. I found a bag, cut 2 eyes hole and off I went. Rest of the garage were pissing themselves, customer wasn't to impressed.

Pity @zzzak isn't here to impart all he learned from his two year brake rebuild program.

When I was out yesterday my front brakes started honking a bit, so stripped and cleaned them up this morning. It was the right hand calliper sliders that were gummed up so I know I have fixed it. Did both sides of course. Also cleaned up the pistons and pads and rubber greased the seals. Good 4mm left on the pads so will keep them for the time being. Looks like the last time they were off some cack handed fuck wit had been at them. Both callipers scratched up on the faces where they had been clamped with no protection. Also they are the wrong colour so have either been rebuilt or replaced at some point. No big deal as they are fine but so tempted to refurbish them and paint them the right colour. I got to keep telling myself this bike is a winter hack and not get too obsessive. All cleaned greased and back together. Shame the rest of the bike is so shit high . May not be able to resist cleaning it this afternoon

Who's that then .............

I just thought of him

This seems to be me at the moment.

I dare say but I suppose it's the contrast for me, I am usually here and there like shit in a field most of the time.

It can get boring though.... I had the scam ? "This is my new phone number" text message today.....could not be arsed with it, just blocked the number, apart from that, done fuck all.

Sitting here thinking I have had a very surreal day by my standards. I haven't had to go anywhere or do anything I didn't want to. Bloody luxury. Shadow doesn't need me to take her to and from college, older daughter hasn't needed to go to the stables (no horse) and the boy takes himself to work. Apart from doing some stuff around the house and playing bike I have been a freeman for the first time in years probably. Could this be the future, probably not as big daughter still needs transport and driving lessons. But nice to dream.

He will be there via Scotland.

Solenoid for the actutator, there was a new one supplied with the turbo but they didn't fit it

Or maybe Puff Bang Sqeeze Blow ?

The site looks nice, I found a Bug though . On the Segway page the link is over the bottom section.
