finished work at 6am, hit the sack straight away, finally woke up around 4pm, farted about abit, then decided to get into the garage and fettle a few things. 
first thing was to rebuild the rc35's from ebay with the bits tim just sent me (thanks! ) after swearing a bit at the circlip for the brake rocker which was a sod to fit purely becuase i don't have any circlip pliers i then fitted them to the aluminium O, had a quick spin and they feel better than the rigid forks but the handling is still a little funny, i think the head angle is slightly to slack causing that bar dropping feeling when you turn, i might change the tyres coz porcs don't help with their quick wash out on corners that they suffer from.
after this i was just stood looking at the various bikes i have, thinking which bikes do i ride? should i sell some? should i swap some bits? what should i fart about with next? what's the next thing to do with the project bikes? . . . . . . . this thinking faze took atleast half an hour!!
decided that because i am supposed to be on my rotered 18 days off but i have been working covering shifts this has left me with 4 days off starting today (now yesterday at the time of this post) i decided to go for an evening ride, where? local trails? no, sod it! isle of wight, 9pm ferry! 2 hours of night riding!! nice
weather was perfect trails were riding nice, did some naughty trials that i am not suposed to ride on :twisted:
now i'm sat here watching southpark while typing laughing at the "mr hanky" the christmas poo song!
i feel like it's still daytime coz my body clock is all over the place!!
here's some pics of todays achievements!!
