And on the seventh day Richo ended his work which he had made. Decided resting was for soft cox, straddled the REX and headed up the old road.
And it was good

Its how the assimilation process begins Richo :lol: .

Its also good because I like to ride other bikes, gives good bargaining power - hey can I have a go, you can ride mine :kuda:

There is one owner of a certain "black pearl" that will be offered a go on the CDT too :kuda: :kuda:

Functional blinging I think is the correct term 8)

I rode that up Apollo Road. It's an awesome thing to peddle! :)

Phil should be barring up right about now :lol: - the Kerker got a 2" insert a few days ago, so now sounds like a motobike should :twisted: .....and I have given the old girl a bit of a clean (nothing too drastic, it still has that 32 year-old 'patina' that money just can't buy ;) ) - the new 520 chain conversion has unleashed at least another 2.345 hp !! :kuda:

Here is Marty on the Pearl from a few years ago..... (in further good news for Phil - a functioning rear brake now comes as standard equipment :lol: )

I'll add a couple of photos later tonight from the VJMC ride we did yesterday. The old girl is lookin' pretty tidy, and with a last-minute gearing change tomorrow arvo :shock: she will have some decent legs for the upcoming CDT.

WOOPS almost forgot to mention - your Rex looks great in RAPID Phil :kuda: very good story, I showed a couple of the old boys from our scooter traffic squad, they were very impressed ! hat40.gif hat40.gif
