    There for the social as not on track.
    Booked hotel night before and will trundle down through Derbyshire afterwork (prob. on Trigger) grab bite to eat and then catch up and a natter over a pint or 2. Head to Donny and see how everyone gets on.

    Got some other pals there, and maybe even The Fridge will be on track as loaned it out so lots going on / people to see so to speak.

    Hope the N.L. instructor who ended up in a air ambulance after he followed me at Anglesey a few years back and crashed with a high side on 1st corner is fully recovered now.

    Just a little update.
    The bikes now rebuilt and running well.
    I'm not saying the injector wasn't a problem at some point but also found some other issues along the way which would have contributed to her rough running.
    The rubber trumpets had become slack and was allowing air to get sucked into the system.
    All removed, cleaned and reseated and she's running pretty much 100%.

    Not a bad fix considering.

    It'd be good to meet up mate. Maybe even have a beer or 2 if you can manage it.
