Buttertubs pass C2C 2015

Postby Scooterlam » Sun Jul 12, 2015 1:00 pm

Another clip from this years C2C, the addition of Buttertubs and Honierton passes really added to the experience. One of the best days riding I've enjoyed. Well done to Paul Price and his team for improving what was already the best LCGB event on the calendar.
really looking forward to the Derby 150 as for me this is what Scootering is all about.

I'm not used to having the luxury of viewing a ride back with Gopro. so when the scenery is stunning I tend to take it in. Number of times I've thought back through a day and realised there was so much I missed blatting it.
Also there's a certain etiquette to be observed, something Ive ignored in the past :oops: :lol:
I often watch the video you put up of the return from C2C a few years back, its great and triggers so many other memories.

one thing you will find is that watching your trip back on the video you start using the footage to learn how and where to improve your motor, especially if you have gauges which you can see in the footage. the camara's a great tool ;)

Brakes are pretty handy too,
Notice the cable ties. I had a leaking hydrolic hose and the constant bleeding lead to snapping the master mount.

Get what you say about the footage, wipes away the rose tinted glasses.

Done a lot of third gear on the way across,
Engine braking is allI the brakes I had.
