Its getting to that time of year again where aprox 1200 riders start prepping their bikes and plucking up courage (and believe me, doing it on my baby, a Honda CR500 takes courage - or stupidity???) to endure the 3 hour race at the famous Weston SuperMare Beach Race. This year I'm riding to raise as much money as i can for Leukaemia Research who are trying to find cures for this terrible disease.
To try and boost up the money i'm raising through sponsor forms, I have designed a similar race shirt to the one I will be wearing on the day, which I am getting signed by as many people as possible. From Motocross to Road Racers and Rock bands to Football players and any one else I can track down. This shirt will be sold off to the highest bidder with all the money going to Leukaemia Research. Keep an eye on the shirt Diary link to find out who's signed the shirt, then start saving those pennies to bid on a one off shirt. Auction details will be added at a later date.

Pro Bleeders
Suspension fork bleeders are designed for a quick release of built up air pressure. The push button operation allows the pressure to be released without any tools, leaving the forks to act as normal, and to an extent, reducing arm pump - as you are likely to bleed them more often.
They are easy to install, as they just replace the OEM bleeder screw on the fork cap.
Obviously make sure the forks are fully extended (jack the bike up on a stand) before releasing the pressure.
There are quite a few about, but i've used the Motion pro bleeders in the past which are RRP £12.99 from http://www.ultimatepursuits.co.uk/
