British Super Bike - Assen September 2013

Having won the bidding at a breast cancer charity auction for 2 weekend VIP passes for any BSB round with www.quattroplantkawasaki.com I've gone for the Assen round in Holland in September. Always wanted to go there. To make it even better my Dutch friend Repko Lap is going to join me for the weekend.

All those unfinished project bikes

It's no wonder that you see so many unfinished project bikes up for sale. All I have done for months has been to refurbish a bike that was all there but in unknown condition. But just doing that has involved endless little jobs that consume an evening each time, poor old Ethel had to endure snatched moments whilst I grovelled about in the cold garage outside. Working on a bike whenever you like dressed in a dressing gown is the way to go. I have started to see the end, hopefully, of the street fighter project as the parts bin of new goodies is rapidly emptying. just need a weekend of dry weather to finish spraying the wheels then we really are on our way.
