Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 27, 2012 Moderator Posted August 27, 2012 True. The weather forecast has got worse for the weekend and It there is a highish chance of rain then a full face will have to do.
up.yours Posted August 27, 2012 Posted August 27, 2012 well iv'e just come in from doing the dogs anal glands and im pissed through, it's rained all day in bolton.
Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 27, 2012 Moderator Posted August 27, 2012 Too much info mate. A few dry spells this side of the Peaks but bouncing down now. I am keeping an eye here LINKY It wasn't too bad this morning. Said dry Friday, a chance of rain Saturday and dry Sunday. Changed since then. Found another site with a better forecast so now am going to watch that one instead. LINKY
Moderator Cynic Posted August 27, 2012 Moderator Posted August 27, 2012 As long as it can be classed as showers i'm not bothered. I like to get the tent up dry otherwise. Shit happens. Makes a message of the exhausts though.
Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 28, 2012 Moderator Posted August 28, 2012 i'll be coming up friday too. Might run along with DDT. See how the timings go. Whats the crusing speed of the TS, with it being a shakedown, running in run? I know there is a few years and 30 odd hp between them. Is 60 realistic. Or will that be too much. Bogging down at 50/55 (5k rev's) at the moment Cynic!
Moderator Cynic Posted August 28, 2012 Moderator Posted August 28, 2012 Fine tuning, always fun. I fancy going single carriageway only this time. May even bounce off the coast on the way if its nice. I have all day. Like being 12 years old again.
Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 28, 2012 Moderator Posted August 28, 2012 It may be too much for the first long run for me. Especially as it has carb issues. Depending on the most direct twisties roads I am getting 88 to 98 miles from different sites from mine to Squires.
