Drumroll..





It wasn't delivered.


After trying to get Superbike factory on the phone for 2 hours to find out where it was, and finally getting through to the salesman and him promising to call me back with an update, he didn't.
So it's cost me £70 in insurance costs to change then change back my policy all for nothing.
I can't wait for the hassle of trying to get my deposit back.
They are ****'s of the highest order.

After emailing my intention of taking this to the small claims court for return of deposit I got a call from the sales manager, and it would seem it’s getting delivered on the 27th.
They’ve refunded the £70 insurance costs and apologised (for what that’s worth).
My breath is not being held as to whether it’ll actually arrive.

Tempting, just can’t be arsed with (extra) stripping off at work*. I’ve some running gloves I’ll try under next time or just put up with the winter gloves in the afternoon.

*in to chef whites, not a stripper…honest

Get those "site" latex gloves to wear inside the proper riding ones. They work well too.

I also highly recommend powdered gloves unless you like sweat rash!

I take 2 pairs of gloves out with me now if I'm out early, this time of year can still be cold first thing, but then heat up rapidly later. Luckily I've got panniers.
Not unknown to go out in heated gloves and come back in my thin summer ones!

The thin runners gloves I think should do the trick, can pinch some of the blue man group gloves from work if they don’t.

Ride home was glorious, didn’t even care sat waiting at the fuel pump for about 5 mins as Karen did her weekly shop with her fuel.

I actually rode out of a filling station without filling up last weekend as there was a sign on the pump saying to take my helmet off.
Nope.
