Season offically starts tomorrow. Round 1 of the Supercross Cup. Lurgan Park, a technical course with some sloppy slide moments on it and some odd bits, apparently the water feature has been removed though!So in order to get the bike ready for the nationals in Jan I've started to tweak.....not myself, but the bike.
