Just ordered my next set of tyres for the warm months. The Mitas didn’t last very long as I think they don’t like faster riding on tarmac. Will fit something very gay in a few days, Dunlop Meridian.

and it's raining. I serviced a friends Kawasaki j300 and Mandi likes the look of it. Her place of work is moving to Norwich meaning a 40 mile commute. She did talk of an electric bike at one point but she's having so much trouble getting her leg over the back seat she's looking elsewhere. There will be shopping, what weekend is complete without shopping. Plenty of racing on over the weekend.

I'm in work today. Packed a couple of tyres, 748 fairing panel , eccentric steering tube (916) and a couple of smaller items. No traffic at all on the commute

Got the WR250 up on the ramp for a once over, found that the rear brake light switch was staying on. The piston/plunger was seized so took it apart and gave it some love and all is well again.

We start today with a very sad story ........ Ive Just arrived home back from the hospital after seeing a good friend take his last breath, I was honoured to have been there at the end. This was a man when had dodged a snipers bullet in the Falklands, had survived many armed patrols in Northern Ireland. A man who had walked away from a high speed motorbike crash. At the hospital, just before he went he beckoned me toward him, he couldn't speak due to the pipes and tubes that were attached to him so I moved closer as he pointed at his mouth. I ...said I didn't know what he wanted and asked if he could write, he nodded vigorously so I passed him some paper from his bedside cupboard and took a pen from my pocket. Unfortunately, as he was writing, he stopped, the pen fell to the floor, the machine that he was attached to started to make that ominous monotone that tells you its all over. The paper dropped from his hand as the nurses rushed in and tried in vain to revive him but all to no avail, he now knew all the answers to all the questions ever asked, including the ultimate. I returned to my car in the car park with heavy heart, trying to avoid looking into the faces of the mixed patients, visitors and hospital workers. I somehow managed to get to the car without breaking up, and, as I fumbled for my keys I rediscovered the note from the recently deceased. By now it was all crumpled up so I attempted to straighten it out but it It just looked gibberish so I returned it to my coat pocket. I have now got home and was about to throw it away but the though hit me, it might be some sort of final message with hidden importance, there are no spaces between the words, it just appears to be a jumble of letters. I decided to share it on facebook to see if anyone could decipher it, I never was any good at anagrams or conundrums so here it is in its entirety (I'm not sure whether or not he finished before he shuffled from our mortal coil ) it says GETOFFMYFUCKINGOXYGENPIPEYOUFATBASTARD ...any ideas?..
