It was all going so well...Friday had the new Tourances put on 
Sunday time to get them scrubbed in so set off on a ride up over the moors round into Yorkshire, Haworth, Skipton then off to Leeds. Stopped for a few mins on the way to leeds to re route the sat nav. Big mistake
Misery number 1 the bike died, battery had given up wouldn't even turn over. I had managed to find the only part of Yorkshire without even a lump in the road never mind a hill to try an bump start the old girl. so time to call the AA By this time it was pouring down
. Luckily they arrived within 10 mins. centre panel off and a jump start managed to get home. took battery off topped it up and charged it.
Monday set off for work no problem. about 2 miles later.....Misery number 2. I managed to find a nail in the road right between the tread on my 2 day old tyres
. Managed to get a lift back home picked up wifeys bike and off to work.
Father in law picked the bike up and took it to be repaired. New tube and repair £27
need a drink!
Tuesday set off for work. 500 yrds from work temp light came on:whatthefe.
Pulled into car park, Misery number 3, got off to find coolant pissing out of the radiator
Finished work at lunch and managed to ride to the garage. They gave it the once over and a test.... Verdict.... Need a new rad!
. Left it with them to await the bill.
Well they say things come in threes
I AIN'T HAPPY
