Had a whizz up to Peterborough yesterday for the bike show. Rained virtually all the way up, and to cap that off got a puncture just before getting there. Fortunately only a quarter of a mile from a garage with an air line, so all fixed in 30 minutes. Did manage to come across a good caff on the way called the Aylesbury Tuck, in, you've guessed it, Aylesbury. Show was ok, well impressed by the Abba Skylift. Although I've got a hydraulic bench, if I was in the market for a lift I'd go for the Abba as packs away when not required. Bought a few odds'n'sods off the tool guy and watched a bit of the flat tracking. On the Iron Butt stand was an 800 Triumph with an additional 5 gallon petrol tank bolted across the pillion seat. He'd managed 1512 miles in a shade under 24 hours in England, on some long distance challenge. More than fair play to that dude. Dry run home taking the easy/boring route down the A1. All in all another good day on the Fazer, shame about the puncture though.
