What, trying to slow down? It was all over the place. Fortunately nothing coming at the roundabout, as I genuinely believe it would have been touch and go to give way. Given it wasn't the most ideal conditions yesterday morning, I braked very early, I just couldn't get it to slow.

But outside lane hogging BMW beaten, so all's well that ends well.


Had to go to Maplin in the land of the inbreds late yesterday afternoon. Not sure if there had been a spillage, but from M40 to Tesco, I couldn't get any power down, and was sliding all over the place. This was driving gently, by necessity.  Fellow drivers didn't seem to be having issues. However, I did notice a temporary Slippery Surface sign on the way back.

A problem with the balancing, which was only rectified yesterday means the tyres probably still have release agent all over them ;D

If you make a sentence out of the highlighted bits, there's a clue in there somewhere. Hmmm, I wonder what it could mean (YZ250 strokes chin).  ;) ;) ;D ;D

Maybe a visit to the local BP garage might help get rid of the release agent!
