Sir Fallsalot

No i'm not posting pics i don't need the wheel that much

You go first

Yes that is strange i keep forgetting about the GRM and that shows it as legal (green = good to go) weird maybe it has had its status overturned and the OS maps haven't caught up yet

Hmmm that's a 2021 map if i go to the the larger scale it shows that bit as a restricted byway now, i was asking because i can remember doing it on the XR many years ago being led about by some lads from that way As for your offer i'm determined to drag the dog your way this year to be led about by someone

I was thinking of this bit here

I dont know what your worried about you'll probably be working anyway

Are you able to sneak along the restricted parts of the Fosse way Bob or is it no go now

Your probably not the only one mailing them you may have to be a bit more patient

Good thing is its all flat not a hill to climb anywhere

Hurry up and move so instead of ride reports on abandoned shit we can have them on dirty shit

The Beta got a new skid plate which did arrive yesterday Me and the wife don't do the valentines thing either but i did treat her to a kids curry and chips and some chocolate but only because she asked

With the trail riding i do on the 650 and xr400 i run tubes because there's always a lot of road work and i like to keep up a good speed on the road and always carry spares and tools to change them. with the XTrainer i use mousses because you just cant puncture them i run a 120 Mousse in a 140 tyre so when the mousse is new its the equivalent of about 10 psi now it has 1500 miles on it it's more like 6psi when it starts getting really soft i'll stick it in a 120 tyre I was thinking of tubliss but I was out a few months ago with a lad using tubliss system and he had a rip in the sidewall of the tyre, he had a tubeless repair kit but it was no good to fix this. A fix would have meant putting a tube in so that means carrying tools and tubes again so i decided to stick with mousses

That's the one

Nope but i remember you putting the photo up to try and trap everyone

Another fussy fucker

Classic film its so sad everyone lost their sense of humor and got offended at some point so stuff like this will never be made again

You fussy fucker i zoomed in and can say if i was single there isn't any in that photo i wouldn't take out

Do you run tubes or mousses in your tyres there

And you say your not a fan of the car

I'm running Michelin Enduro Medium for the first time on the rear of my XTrainer bloody good all round tyre just bought a new front ready for when the stock tyre wears out

I remember riding my bike fully loaded with camping gear and the wife along one of the dykes back in the early 90's in the most torrential rain i have ever ridden in with lightening striking the ground around me i ended up taking shelter under a bridge for a few hours just the kind of riding weather Pete loves

These guys do a lot of the extreme rally's like the elephant rally so travel in snow and ice plus as Mawsley said carry more kit

The Friday night was ok it was dry all night (except in my tent) but a very windy and was a proper pub camp site, and the evening was spent eating drinking and talking bullshit in the pub, quite civilised really. i was up and packed before the rain hit Saturday so only got wet on the way home. Photos pinched from else where, you get a different clientele to this rally then the summer ones not so many dickheads Notice how old every fucker is very few youngsters at all These two on the outside had travelled over 600 miles from Aingeray in France and they weren't the only ones from over the pond
