Nearly missed it.
I wanted to get a photo of all the 4's on my speedo,( only going to happen once ) but i forgot about it.I was overtaking a line of car's at 80mph when i looked down,shit ! A rapid pull in amongst them,with a locked up back wheel,got me this.

Nice Mick. I guess you got the misfire problem corrected since you stated that you overtook the line of cars at 80mph.

A rapid pull in among a line of cars and a locked up back wheel seems a bit dangerous just to get a pic of your odometer Mr daredevil

Mick if I was as young as you I'd be out on the road. I in sight of 70 and can't figure out how that happened. I've tried not to slow down too much though. I did a ride to the Arctic Circle via the Dempster "Highway" (actually a cruddy gravel/mud/pot holed haul road) in the northern Yukon Territory last June and made it back alive.

Acceleration is an alarming thing when related to age.
I like that Mick ![]()
