On the Holyhead side just after the Britannia Bridge there is an expansion joint covering the full width of the road. It’s two strips of polished shiny steel located in a nice very fast bend. It is a 50 limit over the bridge so that is what you supposed to do, but it’s tempting to go a little bit quicker. In the wet it’s always a sphincter clincher but all that happens is the bike shimmies as you go over it as you lose and then regain grip in a fraction of a second. I have seen riders panic as they approach it but no need.

Because that’s where they site the cable winches when they’re putting in new or replacement cables. One persons way of making the job easier is another’s way of inspecting the scenery, or getting a bigger laundry bill😎

Oil filters from Wemoto. 10/30 oil from sportsbikeshop Castrol power 1 4T £38.95

What I really detest is the amount of manhole covers that seem to be in corners rather than on the straight bits of road.

Oil filters - HF204 + HF117 Like many I use HiFlo filters ('17 DCT) Just checked - £42 for 5ltr Westway oil plus the two HiFlo filters.
