Thanks Harry, hopefully over the next couple of months I should be sorted and up to now, after all the tests I've been having, I feel very fortunate that nothing sinister has yet been found, I'm just hoping that any future tests and the hernia op' doesn't clash with the rally in June.

So how did Leverton bike night go? As for me I'm pleased I had to cancel because it's been p*ss*ng down with rain in Grimsby for the last two hours, despite the weatherman saying it was going to be glorious.
I wouldn't have been a happy bunny if FAB had got lathered in road crud after a good clean and polish, but that's just typical of the UK climate

Lovely night. Met up with Richard (itsnotateapot) at Blyth, and had a buzz through. He was on the T500 and I was out on the TC200 again. Ricky Pell was there on his Yam Butty, so we had a good natter. I left about 7ish and got home just gone 8 after travelling mostly on A/back roads and calling for petrol. Found out the 200 did 63.35mpg since filling up on Sunday - 90 miles and 6.45litres of Morissons finest go juice. The speedo reads 0-120 when it goes over about 50mph, but the rev counter seems ok. I'll have to keep a lookout for a set of clocks!
It went a bit dark while we were there, but no rain. Ricky got a bit on the way, hopefully fine going home.

Rather frustratingly I didn't get there tonight as the rear brake must have been binding on Karens Yamaha Diversion. We got to Gainsborough and then it locked up, so we had to wait for it to cool down and then head back home

Knott End bike night was very busy , lovely and sunny , cheers mick.
