I went first expecting to be quieter than Magnum's carbon cans. The limit for the track is 102db...

I got 105db with no baffles, then 102.9db with my home made baffles in... bugger :(

Magnum got......














99db! The git!!! :lol:

Gunna have to try a couple of things to get rid of that decibel.

well on that day I was heading to finchingfield, a beautiful little village in Essex, i'm sure many of you know it. as I said I never made it back in 2010, but today I rode past the crash site and finally got to finchy...... :thumbup:
I even saw another firestorm coming out of finchingfield..... :biggrin
I had a lovely ride, a little bit of everything, the roads were quiet with hardly any wiggins wannabees..... :lol:
i even saw the local wildlife..... :wink:

Nothing except abuse it around some backroads :thumbup:

Also I stuffed my colleague into an industrial tumble dryer, he said my music choice was crap and I'm bigger than him...

You may be a huge fan of riding him but I don't think that allows you to call him your bike

Jamie, now that is trust.............. if a mate of mine asked me to get into a small space that couldn't be opened from the inside and he then closed the door................ I would tell him to feck off as I would judge him by my standards, and I know I would walk off and leave him for 2 mins as he panicked.


would anybody else trust their mates and get in the tumble drier?
