nzralphy Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Brilliant blog starting here "Ishy gets ready to play" Can you give us a daily update? PLEASE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ishy Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Ok Ralph , 80 days to go now fat lad, got a bike ? Well I sold my 09 250 last week, and been riding the kid's 125 until I get a new bike, once the little popper stopped smoking it ran like a new un, poor little thing has never been above quarter throttle. In the past I have winged it a bit and managed to get round, but I know if I want to get round this year I better get my sad ass in shape. I don't like running or owt like that, so just ride as much as I can, since I will not be getting off the bike too much come May, one thing people under estimate is how far you walk each day up and down the sections, my plan is to limit this as much as I can, mebe once each day at the lunch stop.

timp Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 Nowt wrong wi wellies for Scotland. I was the only one with dry feet last year . Tell a lie. When we carried the bikes through that big river they did get a splash in them I also had a seat for a couple of years on the Scorpa. If I hadn't I wouldn't of been able to stand back up after those little road bits!! See your on Sherco Ishy. Two of us are on 2010 models. Also that Scotland virgin beginner Cabestany is on one behind us. Should be good for a few factory bits We'll let him cary the spares. He's younger than us!
