1000k Service
Apr 20th
My bike has had it’s first service (1000k) it’s had a new spark plug an oil change and the bolts have been loctited, they shouldn’t come lose again.
As promised I only paid for the oil, I did how ever purchase an extra 1L to keep in the shed if I need to top up, so the service actually cost me ruffly £6 and was turned around quickly, thanks to the guys at :

Nasty Shock
Mar 17th
Today after a bike ride today I had a nasty shock upon discovering that my rear brake assembly had come loose and was moving back and forth freely. I notice while out on my that when I used the rear brake there was a clonk, I did stop to have a look but couldn’t see much wrong at that time to I limp home just using the front brake. When I arrived home I had a proper inspection and found that the bolt (1) was nearly completely out of the frame, not much thread left to go and bolt (2) had loosened letting the hole brake assembly move forward, Thank god it didn’t become detached from the bike while I was doing 50-60mph
My bike has now done 360km from new. I will have to inspect the bike at closer intervals. I didn’t really expect the brakes to fall of at this sort of mileage :(

My Latest Broadband Speed Test.
Jun 17th
My latest broadband speed test for Virgin Media. 10meg is what I pay for and about 10meg is what I get, its a shame about the upload speeds now that we are in the age of the big life share. With all those photographs to upload via Flickr and alike, lots of Videos of those special moments to show to family and friends, plus all the social networking we do isn’t it time to up the upload speeds a little.
My download speed has grown massively in the last 5 or so years but my upload speed has hardley moved. I thing the UK is lagging (pardon the pun) to the rest of the EU and the world.
This is not a dig @ virgin media, I’m sure they have a set of rules they have to follow
