Tip of the day
Small heart-shrinking moment this morning at the sight of a puddle of water in the bottom of one of my Metal Mules - leaks? Inconcieveable, I thought. Closer inspection revealed that it was in face a quarter pint of 15W40 escaped from the emergency bottle I bought to get me home from Cadwell. Rainwater would have been easier to clean up, but at least know I can be reassured that my panniers have now got guaranteed efficient wet clutch performance as well as gearbox longevity.
But I didn't come here to tell you about that.
I came to tell you that the fine folk at Motorcycle-usa.com, realising that for a large number of us, Fridays have never been quite the same since Frank Melling and the Telegraph parted ways, have signed him up for a new column, "Single Track Mind." Head over there with a cup of tea and enjoy Frank's matchless (see what I did there ;) take on health care reform - and watch as the Yanks do their best to understand Brit Irony!

Health care reform is not funny, but inspires lots of heated debate. My grandchildren will be paying dearly for it, as well as that idiot's other "reforms".
Nice of you to mention us, though love.
Hi Chewy,
Heated debate has to be a good thing - this side of the Atlantic politics is dying of apathy and a bad case of "a plague on all your houses". Which can't be healthy...
On my return from Denmark last week, I was horrified to discover a pool of brown liquid in the bottom of one of my panniers.
Luckily, it was a leak from my hip-flask (a converted WD40 can) and turned out to be Gajol, the Danish vodka/liquorice drink. For a moment, I thought I had become the victim of a case of remote incontinence.
BTW, I though Beemers didn't need spare oil? :)
