So i figure if i get some breakdown cover and just see how far i get. Considering just going for Saturday as it will mean carrying less.

September 1, 201014 yr Author Well I'm now not going. The answer to how far i could get was 3.4 miles. Went out earlier, the bike cut out at a set of traffic lights with a loud clunk and refused to start until it had cooled (turned over ok'ish just wouldn't start), riding home was like riding with the brake on. Guess ill be spending my weekend in the shed.
