slapshot 3

Philcomm2000 I have a minor ( ) dimensional issue myself and have found the back boingy bits on mine cope fairly well. Granted it a little more recent Paioli shock but it might help... I moved the spring back to it's fullest extent then tightened the spring down 10 turns to get the preload okay the adjusted the brass screw to a stiffer setting..seems to work PS don't listen to R2, look at the "that's buggered that" thread you'll se why

Clicky Like the old gag What is the world's most reliable contraceptive.... Wedding Cake

You're in the smelly stuff now, TWICE Carolyn hates being called the missus and she says she'll bring WAR & peace to the scottish to throw at you and my copy is a hardback

Right you lot, I've seen loads of piccys of the trial but none of the night of debauchery at the TC get together.... Where are they? Is Andy keeping them for bribery purposes, does R2W have a batch that he plans to bribe Andy with...... COME ON WHERE'S THE PICCYS BOYS please

Welcome ladytrialer, it's a mad world in here at times Have your years of road riding taught you anything about navigation???? You should meet up with Kinell, might help him out........

Amos, though I have to agree with an earlier post that mentioned Bernie

So come on then...what was the weather like???? even on me hols still found inetrnet access...sad

Oh dear looks like it all slowed down still it's not raining any more so at least the beer won't be watered down. If you want the technical stuff, wave on the tail edge of the front slowed things down, rain delayed by about two - three hours. Tomorrow still looks pretty good

last call: No real changes, get this afternoon out the way should be fine

Just had a quick look at another couple of charts since I came to work this evening. Saturday, You could be really lucky and only have a few patches of light rain to deal with tomorrow might catch the odd heavier burst but not much, last nights model seems to have overdone it a bit. Pic 1 is three consecutive frames from what we call Morph (no not tony harts wee plasticine buddy) for 12z 15z and 18z tomorrow (1pm, 4pm and 7pm). As before smaller blue dots is very light rain the bigger dots a little heavier, green and yellow heavier still. By proper drinking time it should be dry 24 degrees Sunday looks ok, but there are showers around and you MIGHT catch a couple. Pic 2 again the rainfall intensity as above. 22 degrees so still pleasantly warm I'll have another look when the new runs come in around 0400 and put something else on Cheers D

Jack of all trades master of none....I'll say it before anyone else

Last Forecast for the weekend, I'm off on my hols now and missing Hawkestone AGAIN However, hope the pics work. What does it mean, well Saturday afternoon could be grim, a band of rain spreading across the country (the blue, green and yellow dots and triangles) through Sat afternoon and into the evening. The wind will pick up a little as well but temps still into the 20s, rain should have pushed through by mid evening and shouldn't water the beer down. (because of the geography around Hawkestone you might get away with only lighter patchy rain but you've been warned.) As long as there enough to irritate King Adam Sunday, no rain and fairly pleasant, though there is a chance of an odd shower as the day progresses but they'll be few and far between (the odd blue v on the 2nd pic) not a breezy as Saturday. Should be okay. The gray back ground: the darker the gray the less cloud, white areas overcast low cloud. Blue o's light rain Green Moderate If Andy gets plastered make sure somebody gets some good compromising piccys of him Hope the weather plays into Doug's hand and he takes the 100th he richly deserves. Pic 1 1pm Saturday Pic 2 1pm Sunday Have fun y'all

more likely the shaft through the swinging arm. replaced mine a couple of years back

Fine, If bespoke forecasts are not good enough............ try the thread entitled oi Slapshot

That can be arranged.... Our latest guidance suggests a general change in the overall pattern. The hot humid weather we have had will drift into Europe bringing a more normal westerly airstreams however the transition over the next few days should be interesting. What does this mean; take the waterproofs folks. Friday/Saturday Patchy out breaks of rain possibly thundery into Saturday morning. Warm humid night Saturday Warm and humid, rain pushing east but occasional thundery showers developing as the day progresses. Breeze increasing during the day. Temps up to 22 Sunday Similar to Saturday but far fewer showers. Potential for a lot of sunshine and temperatures pushing back up to 25 degrees but feeling less humid. Be very unlucky to catch a shower after lunchtime on Sunday Like every weather forecast this could change patterns fairly complex at the minute, I'll keep you posted

fantastic how many of these do you think they had

yeah yea rub it in why don't you

Weekend weather looking interesting, from a professional point of view of course.... Still looks warm 22-24 degrees but more chance of showers right through the weekend. (you don't want to be there over the next day or two, up to 30 and thunder). Two different weather systems converging on the uk, both likely to kill each other off but it'll still increase the number of showers over both days. I'll get a better look at the models tomorrow at work...watch this space

MULTI millions, Heath, thank you, multi millions....... in that we get this: Two NEC SX6 comprises a 15-node cluster with eight processors per node. The vector processors within each node share a single 32 Gigabyte memory and have a theoretical peak performance of 8 Gigaflops. The combined 2-cluster SX6 has a total peak performance of 1.9 Teraflops with a total memory of nearly 1 Terabyte. (Flop stands for 'Floating Point Operation' - or arithmetical instruction.) Used to be a pair of Cray T3Es, but the were not quick enough..... Great for a game of space invaders at night Okay, Looks pretty good to be honest. Temperatures well into the upper 20's for most of the weekend though a chance of mist or patchy fog on both Saturday and Sunday morning. Very little wind (apart from that generated by forum members present ) but a very slight chance of thundery showers later on Sunday. I'm back in here Wednesday so I'll stick an update on then. Still jealous I can't get there

well...seeing as you asked nicely (ish.....) Just come on shift, give us a while I'll have a look at the model stuff for next weekend. d

bout a quid and a half each...NGK BP5ES, think the BPR are a bit more pricey...

Hey Scoobs you have something else in common with Fujigas now, he ride a 4RT as well mopping his brow......

brilliant

One trick i used, old one mind you was to file off the sharp leading edges of the shoes, took away any snatchy feeling. I could never rid myself of the spongy feel no matter how hard i tried or what I did. I always found that when I took the hub off to clean it after a trial the shoes and hub liner were always glazed don't know why, it would always atke a rub with a bit of sandpaper to clean it up properly. It was once suggested that the spongy feel was primarily down to the cable and cable stretch. I never solved it, maybe it's one of the reasons I sold it on

....and there was me thinking you were halting the discussion before it got out of hand.......nice pic
