Hope he is physically ok and makes it to JoG's Edited June 21, 2022 by EXUPDEL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IforB Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Righty-oh. Some updates from P4. (Apologies the alarm went off at the Yacht Club and I had to go down and sort it out!) 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IforB Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 The front lot are properly moving. To get into Gourock by 1800 and then straight on the Ferry is giving it some. I reckon the first riders may be arriving at JO'G at 0100-0130 if they keep up the same pace. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IforB Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Ben has made it to P4 and the team are trying to repair the back brake. For an oil tanker, it appears to bounce well! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IforB Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Some fine work by the P4 team and Ben has a working back brake again. + some instructions! 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKDMitch Posted June 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 Most of our riders are now through P4, with some skipping the ferry to make up time. As Ifor says the front runners are keeping up a good pace! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKDMitch Posted June 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 First few riders are through Inverness and P5. Rich Sutton on the GSXR, with Andy and Nige about 10 minutes behind. Luke's tracker shows him not far off, and some of the others can't be far behind either. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of these '£600' motorcycles are looking really pretty bloody good value. Where do I purchase one of these '£600' motorcycles? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do I purchase one of these '£600' motorcycles? I think the trick is to buy crashed ones with fairing damage. My FZ6 was £400 because of that. The insurance weren't interested in it and it was cluttering up the workshop of Phil Youles' place, so getting anything for it is better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKDMitch Posted June 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 As always, some are on their normal bikes because the shitter they bought, erm, shit itself Remember, @Hawkati did it on his 916 one year for that exact reason. Fucking crippled him. Many look a lot better in the pics than they do in the flesh. And it's not as if we've got fleets of GS's lined up, is it? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, so let me get this right... the trick is to get less shit shitters, than shit shit shitters...
