Tou can eat them raw, no problem. But the flavour is very different, less intense and more ocean. This one ended up sauted with onion and garlic and a chilly, white wine, then an heirloom tomato for a while to cook it properly, and parsley, a good mix with linguini, and a squeeze of lemon before serving. Tasted amazing, but the credit goes for the squid. The nice flavour and texture is what you get from buying line caught adult seafood that lived a good life while wild, instead of eating whale blubber like Marcel!4 points

Just ordered a Yuasa for the Sprint from Tanya Batteries, the battery on the bike is a Numax that Tanya are selling for £37 , the Yuasa was double that but Worth it IMHO.4 points

All back together on the front, tank cleaned out. Also petrol tap cleaned and resealed. Just want to fit my vacuum vSystem Scott Oiler and I can put the bodywork back on and I am on the road. Prolly first dry day next week. Just need to go and get a few litres of E5 to get it to the garage. Also think I am going to order a new battery I don’t trust the one on there and I am not willing to gamble. The one thing I think won’t work is the fuel light. I can’t get any reading at all from the sender. The wiring on the bike is fine as I can light the fuel bulb with a jumper wire. I don’t care that much TBH as the fuel tap has a reserve so I shouldn’t get stranded. (Famous last words). Also a question for you clever types, the replacement rear brake light switch has shat the bed and stuck on. It worked fine when I fitted it a few weeks ago but isn’t now. I’m tempted to leave as is for a minute and ride it to see if it frees up and starts working. It wasn’t a cheap switch. Oh and I did fit a 7.5 amp fuse on the heated grips.4 points

Cheers, still a 10 footer but tidy and fingers crossed mechanically sound now. Desperate for some dryer weather so I can get some miles on it and get to know it.3 points

I wonder when in history someone was so hungry that they thought they would try eating that sort of thing.3 points

Packing my bags to return home from a weeks skiing in Andorra ( weird little place jointly owned by France and Spain for Marcel), 65 cm of snow in one day, fresh snow every day but also very strong winds so various parts of the domaine closed from one day to another. Been a fun week with good friends. Four am start tomorrow3 points

We rode over to Slaughterbridge, them Otterham Station. Down to Wadebridge, Dameralls then home. Tea was taken and a load of yap but not much else happened.

Out sorting stuff on the Sprint this morning. First off I wired in an Oxford junction box at the front of the bike in the fairing so that my accessories will go off with the ignition. I know I could have wired a relay myself but I just like these break out boxes they do a tidy job and have 4 fused circuits. I also have a voltmeter and usb Charing to wire to it. May ever get some aux lights in the future if needed. And no my Sprint doesn’t have half a dozen auxiliary circuits built in Also going to fit these, I have exactly the same on my CBF and they work perfectly. I got them for £37 a set so pretty cost effective. This is the 4th set of these grips I have fitted and while the grips and controllers always work well the connectors are pretty cheap and nasty now. I had to replace two on my CBF and one on Graces CBR125. So I am going to replace all of them on the Sprint before I attempt to fit them. Just easier to do it sooner rather than later. Also be a good chance to lose some of the excess wire and make a tidier job all round. I reckon these are the original grips from 29 years ago. Also silly to put scuffed up bar ends back on.2 points
