ditch this, feel a bit of a dick but save 8hrs of driving and possibly ££ in hotel bills and shakedown the new bike over the weekend locally with more time to finish it and a potential pickup if I need to bail rather than being stuck in the middle of nowhere, with the car parked hundreds of miles away
Sounds sensible - just do a local ride, get comfortable with your new bike, and take a set of allen keys...
That was the plan with the new bike. The TT bike doesn't have room for a frame bag which is why I left all the sleep gear in the car for the Tan Hill 600, which then cost me £85 hotel for 3hrs when I wanted to sleep through the downpour.
I could ride the TT bike again, but then the new bike doesn't get an outing, if the new bike is actually ready. Or I could ditch this, feel a bit of a dick but save 8hrs of driving and possibly ££ in hotel bills and shakedown the new bike over the weekend locally with more time to finish it and a potential pickup if I need to bail rather than being stuck in the middle of nowhere, with the car parked hundreds of miles away...
I dunno, I was super keen but with all the arguing and frantic search for new wheels and shit I'm a bit fucked off with the world at the moment. Or maybe it's all the rabies, hepatitis, encephalitis etc flowing through my body after yesterday's shots...
HTFU hippy
