Can you do that? Wasn't sure if the paddles were linked...

Ahh, fair enough, I know what you mean. I do seem to remember people sometimes appearing to think 'hmm, he's a bit old for doing tricks on a bike' but I rarely ride street and it doesn't bother me... Self-preservation, a little. But I guess I'm different to you in that I'm satisfied just playing around having some fun rather than having to go massive. I can understand how you might end up with a bit of 'inner turmoil' now you don't heal as quickly!

How is he gonna downshift then? It'll be like Fast and Furious, haha.

No. It's a shame your family give you a hard time about it, can't see why they would to be honest!

Then that makes you a dick Haha. I so see your point though, it's always obvious what riders *should* do, it's just a shame people are so set on winning they forget this.

Apart from the tits. And the fact they are clearly older than a child, lol.

That's a good one - simple, easy to police and would do the job. Like it

Business head on... Got all GoPro stuff in stock if anyone needs anything, can bring down with me. TF discount available of course!

As of this afternoon I'm now a qualified Association of Racing Driver Schools Instructor So everyone feel free to use and abuse me on Thursday if you wish!

Dan must be secretly gay, so much talk of bum sex!

You'll have to use Echo cranks ideally. Don't worry about the 5mm difference.

Yes.

I'm looking forward to it too! Think I'll bring the MX5 daily, be good fun to wallow around in

A nearby place to sleep either end of the day does help though. Hence why I'm at Keele services having just woken up after a half hour sleep on the way back from Snetterton, pooped!

Exactly, no turbo, no extra crap to support them I'll stop with the hate now... gotta get to Snetterton to flog the shit out of a pretty much standard nearly 25 year old £500 MX-5 all day. It doesn't have a turbo so I know it'll be reliable

They just need to get rid of those turbos

I blame turbos (I have no idea what the problem is, but I bet it's something related to it being a turbo sorry!). Be great to have you along Nick but obviously understand if it can't happen!

Yup, looks good. Try it off something higher so your rear wheel doesn't bounce off the floor

I agree - it was never going to sell in large numbers, it's a bit of a marketing tool. Most companies do the same thing, a Nissan GTR is another example.

I think the new frame design is pretty revolutionary personally. 26" carbon frame... yes and no - would you spend ~£1500 on a frame? Would anyone?

I think 231 frame is a poor example - there is a lot of other stuff they do that's good value, or cheaper than anyone else, or pretty unique (all the new bikes, for example).

Have a Google for 'relays *insert make and model of car here*', should bring up where they are located. You need a 12v supply and some wires to test a relay, Google for 'testing a relay'.

Yup, pretty much that. We tweaked it on the day to make it a bit less complicated, something along the lines of 'you can use a pedal or bash anywhere except in aiding the passing of a red or yellow gate', so people could pause for a rest or whatever.

This - what actually broke?

Just check you have oil, brake pads and tyres, that's all you need
