Re: What's the worst bike you've ever ridden?
Enfield Interceptor, woeful.
I bought a CB350SG for £250 as a pile of scrap and rode it from John o'Groats to Lands End, that was a better bike. In my late teens my Dad had an XS750, that was a much better bike.

It'd be Oulton, Anglesey (coastal), Cadwell for me.
But that's ok, you're allowed to be wrong

Re: Trackdays ready to open up again.... almost time... What you got ?
There'll be a few more to come this year too. It's an expensive circuit to book but it helps that it's almost in my back garden, anywhere else is going to cost me at least a full tank of fuel in the car to get to.
It's also the best circuit in the UK

Re: Rockshox token advice
It actually seems to work well tokenless I wonder if it is because I am heavy - so 100kgs. So logic would say that you need more tokens the lighter you are to get the right sag and progressiveness. I also run a Cane Creek rear shock - with no volume reducers ( and shockwizz suggest that I need less...

Re: Talk To Me About Shocks ?
He means nitrogen. In the lower part of the shock body there's a chamber, one side is oil filled, the other side is pressurised with nitrogen (300psi ish, depends on shock) and there's a floating piston in the middle. On fox shocks this part isn't user serviceable, it has to be sent back to a repair...
