Just back from Brighton. Today was the Historic Commercial Vehicle run from London to Brighton. The starting point this year was Brooklands, no doubt due to Kahn’s ULEZ. The route went via Ryka’s Cafe on the A24, which made for a good spectating place, bagging a good spot at 08:15. It took a good 2 hours for the entrants to make their way past, before jumping on the Fazer, and heading for The Chalet at Cowfold for breakfast. There was a wait for food, which I expected as it is cooked to order.

After a chill in the sun, I enjoyed my normal B road route over the South Downs, before finding a parking spot quite near where the trucks and buses etc were being displayed. A quick lap of all the vehicles was a bit of an effort in bike gear as the sun was certainly out to play, then back on the bike and home via the Ashdown Forest for an ice cream. Just about to catch up on today’s MotoGP and yesterday’s NW200 super bike race.

exactly that. So out of sight, out of mind.

Carrying the helmet in the backpack is for when Im OFF the bike, I recently got refused entry to a building for just trying to walk in while carrying it.

On the diagram under Transmission it is parts No 33 and 44.👍

Well spotted Dave. Must pay more attention. 🤗

 

I agree, if you have an Off and land on your back on a helmet, you're at risk of serious injury or death.

My tank bag expands sufficiently to take a helmet, or a cargo net on the back seat would work.
