Practice- 18th July 2007

Went down the track again today just to get some sort of time in on the bike as things have been quiet lately, and seeing as I’m due to race this Sunday, I just wanted to make sure the bike ran ok.
The weather for a change (what a sh*t summer we’ve had so far) was gorgeous, Lovely sunshine

Quite a few bikes down there today as well, nice to have a bit of competition, but I didn’t go mad trying to race everybody, just done my own thing at my own pace.

Got home and was cleaning the bike only to find out that the jubilee clip on the hose at the bottom of the rad had busted and there was no coolant in her at all!
Don't know when that happened, but i checked before i went and she was full to the brim.
On went a new clip and topped the rad up again.
Just goes to show, something as small as that breaking without you knowing can seriously damage your engine! Bloody hell i was lucky.
No harm done, i took it out up the road to make sure everything was ok.
Phew! panic over, ran as sweet as a nut.
