Going for a blat

Nothing like blowing the cobwebs out. My brother currently has a fantastic streak of about two months with out missig a ride every weekend, if not one day two.

 We had the pleasure of going for a blat on the weekend in Leyburn for the Husqvarna Sprint series round 4. Form wasn't a great factor for me, as whenever I seem to get out its like taking the training wheel off again. An expensive weekend to see where I stood, and as I expected, slow to mid paced clubman is about my speed.

It is only fair, with a long time between drinks and work and family commitments, I was fast enough to be out there but not fast enough to be taking the world by storm. A few weekends before, I got to hang out at a mates place and have a blast on his new farm bike and a legend by any means, the old banshee.

Ive always been a fan of two wheels, but tell you what, these things are a blast!!A few drinks by the camp fire for the hosts birthday, and the weekend was sorted. Looking forward to go for another blat soon.

With the next ride at least two weeks away, I am keen as to make sure everything is sorted on my bike. At Leyburn I blew a fuse and lost my electric start, so some further investigation is required (as well as a good bath).  We will see you out there soon!
