News update for my biker chums. 1: I can now park my motorcycle on the deck of an aircraft carrier without worrying that it will become too rusty to fly. 2: Ducks like motorbikes. | Click to see full-size image. |

She's gleaming Red!!
I treated mine with Muc-off's rust preventer which I already had (ACF-50 after payday) - I'll not do it on the drive though as it makes tarmac rather slippery. I spent as long hosing and brushing the tarmac as I did cleaning and rust proofing the bike....

You been watching this Tom? http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p0276ppy/human-universe-2-why-are-we-herea quote from Prof Cox A game of cricket is played out according to a set of laws and so it is with the universe. And here are the laws of the universe -the standard model of particle physics and this is Einstein’s theory of General Relativity and you can fit them easily on a scorecard. And here are the laws of cricket and it has to be said, at least in this notation, that cricket is far more complicated than the universe. |

I got a wee run out the back roads, working on braking & hill starts as bits I'd like to be better at. Biggest hassle of getting a new bike is the clutch is not as forgiving as the bikes with thousands of miles on them I did the CBT on - so it's well easy to stall.
I haven't booked my theory test yet, will need to get that done.
