    alternative 'viewing'

    earlier in the week I replaced the front pads on TA700 but I have not had a chance to test ride and back at work on Monday.
    So as I hate all the $hite on Saturday night TV I took bike out for a decent run.
    you could say this was my own 'XL700 Factor'

    It was most probably a better experience than those less fortunate had.

    I wont think many of you know this but in the '60s there was a childrens (?) programme called 'Fireball XL5'. Superb entertainment by Gerry Anderson for half an hour! Dave.

    I wish I was a spaceman
    the fastest man alive
    I'd fly around the universe
    in Fireball XL5

    Steve Zodiac of the World Space Patrol was the commander. The glamourous Dr Venus was hot space bunny, navigator/engineer was Prof Matthew Matic and Robbie the robot did all the work. Good eh!! Dave.
