S10 failed MOT....








Well it failed, but not on what I had expected! The rubber handlebar mounts are missing a washer on one side and have got far too loose, and the rear reflector is missing! Went back to work after the MOT and a colleague noticed that the front tyre was going down. Bugger! It seems to have a developed a slow puncture during the MOT, and the garage are not having anything to do with it. I shall have to take the front wheel off and get it fixed, sort of the handlebar mounts, have already bought a reflector.

Bit busy at work with kit, demo's and other stuff, Ian's away on business so I get his email as well. Radio wise we had a couple of training sessions on telephone interviews which were good fun. Interviewed Chris about 1300E owners club, it was good. Needs editing and then may publish on the E club site.

Licence app has gone off (again) for CR, with me and Wellington Academy as company directors. Let's hope it works out OK this time.

Picture is an Enfield Twin, the owner restored it in the 70's. Nice picture of a nice bike.

My birthday on Monday 1st, decided to take the day off, nothing special but I do have rather a lot of leave to use up. Julie's 50th in two weeks, so lot's to do.

Hopefully will get time to work on the bike over the weekend, have two weeks to get it sorted and back to MOT re-test.




Second pic is an old magazine cover that Chris put on Flicker, it's just so evocative of a different age, I love it.


Must go....
