Bike ride Sunday from Hackney to Edmonton, to Hertford, to Baldock!
You don't get this in Hackney and it made me happy to find this lil road!
Great B roads around there.

4 bikes, 2 125's and 2 600's. (Well 1 is 36cc extra :p)

Friend crossing on his CBR 125, new biker of 3 or 4 weeks, but had a crash 2 weeks ago. Front fairing gone but tied together. He's pretty quick.

Me and my friend Manjur. He has the GSXR 600, 2010 model. Great exhaust on it! Sounds the best I have ever heard.

My best mate, kind of a poser LOL. Yamha R125, best looking bike I have seen.

The exhaust is Akropvic Moto GP style apparently. Everyone looks when he rides pass. No baffle so loud, but a kind of Humming sound, not sure what, but sexy like a V twin but different.

Sorry no pics of the roads we went on. I forgot and enjoyed myself too much. ____________________ Hit the G spot.  |

If I was there near the little river I would said 'later mate I'll see you on the other side' and gone the long way round
Where in Hertford did you ride? I usually ride up there searching for new roads ____________________ Bikes : 2006 CBR125R - 2004 Monster 620ie - 2004 ZX-6R B1H - 2005 Monster S2R 800 - 2011 Street Triple - 2009 Streetfighter 1098 - 2014 ZX-6R 636

It wasn't that cold but I shall check on thursday on my day off. Putting acf 50 on again lol. Also fitting my r and g's since my 15 quid ebay crash bungs will literally give me no protection! Also changing oil to silkolene pro 4! Indicators will be added too, spear shape.
Racer I don't know the road I am afraid, my frienfs used their GPS on their mobiles. I just rode my ass off and left them until a round about LOL.
It is apparently rated 5/5 for riding according to the gixxer guy. I agree it was great. Reached over 90, great bends, scenary, changes from heavy tree tops above to smelly fields, hills, cow shit and 30MPH cyclists.
Post pics of your ride guys! Whore your bikes outside work, I don't care:p I just fell in love with biking again after commuiting and not having much fun. Motrcycling is not just a vehicle, but really a thing you do socially, without that 'biker' mentally, feeling, sense of community, it becomes a mode of transport but really it's so much more.
I would rather die in a bike crash doing something that I really love, than die to cancer or something like that. ____________________ Hit the G spot.  |

Thanks man.
This was a detailed clean today, something I don't normally do.
Usually its a rinse with a pressure washer, snow foam, rinse again, lube chain.
Today I:
Strip off the fairings etc
WD-40 the whole lot, focusing on the bad parts (pretty much used a whole can of the stuff- 450ml )
Rinsed with the pressure washer, to help uplift/ remove crud etc
Snow foamed
Rinsed with pressure washer again, to remove the snow foam/rest of the crud
Used autoglym conditioner stuff to hand wash the bike
Rinsed again with the hose to remove the soap
Used the autoglym conditioner on the fairings etc that I removed (WD40 if it was quite bad)
Rinsed fairings etc with hose
Used chamois leather over the bike/ fairings
Started the bike up, had a bit of a shock I tried starting with out some box thing that was on the fairings, so I connected it up and it started up fine That got the engine etc quite warm and started to dry the under side of the bike etc
Put the fairings back on etc whilst also using 3 in 1 oil on the moving parts
Lubed the chain
Started the bike up and got it all warm, went for a ride |
