Hi!

Iโ€™m coming to the Rally. Itโ€™s my first one - do I need to book anything or pay anyone for anything? Iโ€™m looking to kip in my van, is there camping at the place??

No pre-booking or paying needed. And lots of people sleep in their vans, myself included. ๐Ÿ‘

Just pay at the tent when youโ€™ve parked up, walk around & say hello.

The entrance to the rugby club is between 70 and 72 Melbourne ave, I found a couple of triples looking for it last year! See you all there.

Long range forecast is good for Sunday and a bit dodgy for Saturday.
Maybe Tony should bag some uo and bring it home.

Was indeed a great weekend, thanks to all involved in organising. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ Was great to catch up with everyone.

Marred for me only by the breakdown on the Saturday ride out. Front sprocket came off, but managed to coast/push/coast to The Inn at Whitewell. I do carry quite a few tools including a screwdriver, but only a tiny handle with no purchase so could not budge the sprocket cover screws. ๐Ÿ™„

So the AA were called, in part just to test that the cover through Peter James Insurance worked. After 2 hours the first guy came, looked at the H2 like it had come from another planet and said โ€œ I canโ€™t fix that, Iโ€™ll call recovery โ€œ ๐Ÿ˜  So another 2.5 hour wait for the flatbed, back to the campsite by 18:00. Offloaded from the truck okay, but pushing it into the campsite and everything locked up solid! Many thanks to Glen & Mike for help getting the chain off and the bike back onto the site.

Also thanks to Farmer John for the replacement nut & washer. Lesson learnt: make sure itโ€™s secure, carry a spare nut & washer, and a JIS screwdriver that actually works.

How did the sprocket come off? Was the tab washer missing?

Always have allen screws on all covers and a front sprocket nut and washer on the tool bag just in case.
Anyway this wasn't a bad breakdown as you finished to solve it. :smt004
