Re: What did you do today?
Couple of days round North Wales, weather's been kind and the Porthmadog Premier Inn is pretty good.

Re: Best puncture repair
Had my first puncture last year in Scotland. Used the sticky string repair kit. Very easy using the supplied tools, didn't have to use the Co2 cannisters as somebody had a portable compressor. Lasted a 1000 miles until I got home and changed the tyre. The kit must have been 10 years old but the stri...

Re: bike spec help
Go to the local BMW dealer with your VIN and they should be able to access all the information about the bike, inc service history if main dealer serviced. I recently changed to Cotswold Motorrad from North Oxford. The chap on the service desk asked me to bring in my service history because there's...

Travel insurance
I know this has been covered countless times before but as things change thought worth asking. Previously used the travel health insurance that came with my Nationwide account but looking through the small print it seems that they've gone down the 'only cover up 125cc ' route. Which companies are pe...

Re: Annual meet 2023 Discussion Thread
Same mileage but different time. Is that real time? As in allowing for current traffic conditions.

Don't under...

Re: Annual meet 2023 Discussion Thread
MikeS Basecamp is a pain in the arse till you figure it out I much prefer Myroute App for planning routes now Given up on basecamp, plotted a route on MyRoute App. Here's the second draft. Still fine tuning, needs coffee and lunch stops. Taken some of the roads from a Scottish motorcycling site whi...
