If I remember correctly,one of the poncey actor’s bikes rear shocker failed twice. The fabled German engineering,eh?

The OE shocks were replaced with Ohlins kit … so make that dodgy swedish engineering part owned by Yamaha :wink:

Never gotten drunk (did get ever so slightly tipsy once)
Never smoked a cigarette
Never taken any ‘non presciption’ drugs

Back in my late teens (20+ years ago) I had a couple of operations because of crohns/ulcerative colitis … the diagnosis switched back and forth and I’m still not sure which I’ve got (had?). Fortunately I’ve never been on medication, haven’t needed further treatment and am not on a special diet. I do sometimes get bouts of diarrhea which are more likely if I get stressed.

Some eejit has spread carpet tacks over the course and the event has been halted. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/tayside_and_central/8054215.stm

The 6 Days Trial and Pre65 trial start this weekend. The Pre65 is based around Kinlochleven on Fri/Sat. 6 Days Trial starts on Mon. You might find yourself sharing the trails with a few hundred motorbikes!
