They say it comes in threes?
« on: June 05, 2016, 11:21:08 AM »
Even feel like the universe is ganging up on you for no reason?
Last Sunday the battery on my R1200r decided to stuff life and conk out on my way to Chester.
Today after a smashing weekend at a navigation rally (report to follow) in Leicestershire I get ten miles from home and then a road pixie jumps out and punctures my front tire on the Bimbo.
Ten years with out even needing to call the AA and then I need them twice in seven days... So now I'm thinking its comes in threes so what's next?

Turned out not to be a puncture but a failed valve.
