Hi Pete, Even if it is raining I will come on the trike - I think I can manage a couple of miles in the rain being an all weather biker!  Came past the plough yesterday and thought it would be good to have a sign out there now (like the music one) saying about your meet - what do you think? See you soon, JJ x |

Just had a check on autoroute and its:
Distance: 39.7 miles (show in km)
Time: 1 hr 12 min
Nice little run out...got a few little jobs to do on the chop first though...rear wheel likes kicking over even with the adjusters all set up...I get a few miles use the rear brake or give it some stick ad it kicks over to the right?? will sort that tomorrow....next is carbs need a strip and re-build as it pops and splutters at low revs..probably Diphrams so yet again will sort tomorrow.....I may even quickly re-paint the tank as atm its a bit too pink looking lol...See ya there...Voodoo.....

Sorry you guys cant make it, maybe next year? If everyone turns up who said they would, it should be a good day. To those that are attending, bring some pennies as there will be a stall with t shirts/belts etc. I dont know how good the stall will be, will just have to wait and see. oh yeah, bring bags of sunshine |

Shame there is not a small stall selling Carb Diaphrams lol...ended up not having time to sort the carb out but we will still be there,with the chop coughing and spluttering on low revs and popping everytime I have to slow down......fingers crossed ive sorted the back wheel problem,stripped it all off and adjusted the wheel back up,it now sits where it should but the run out tomorrow will show if it stays where it should!...no laughing at my throttle cable flapping in the wind...atm its too short so not attatched to anything but hand grip and carb and it hangs out on its own on the right side of the bike......C YA TOMORROW....Voodoo......
