Was it the one where you chose to come past when there's nowhere left to fight back at 60 when we're all sitting comfy at 59 then pull up at the side of the road?

h lol.Just you wait till I get a more suitable VFR800, heated grips and Sportmax's without chicken strips - game on Grandad
ETA,
You're still almost-awesome though.
I'd worked hard to get there. I let you all clear off and say with tho other guys until we got out of the trees and into the open, then I decided to chase you all down.
I know BN was jogging and rolling off a lot, but you were still at your limit and caught by an old man on an old bike

This is going to get expensive isn't it?
Only if you let it be, my bike wasn't expensive and is plenty fast enough for the roads, it (doesn't really) needs money spending on suspension and brakes but even once I put new forks, radial calipers and get the shock rebuilt it'll still stand me less than £2k, which is cheap for the fun you can have.Jazoli said:

Yes but knowing myself, it's a slippery slope. I want to do track days too, and I want to keep the blackbird nice over the winter, that's 3 bikes already if I get a cheap commuter. I want a classic or something to do up and tinker with... Oh well, I'm sure my wife will understand Alex@POD said:

Please note where LuneR1 lives
It's a fooking long ride up to yours, so maybe I need an overnight pass and do a B&B type thing??? More brownie points needed anyway.
