Well I finally picked up my car from the GBS factory yesterday and drove it home.  Of course it had to rain didn't it, but that meant that I was able to use the weather gear and, other than a few little ingressess of water, it kept me dry.

So first impressions?  It is loud, cold, lets water in, the pedals are cramped and you feel every bump and hole in the road, oh and it's loud!  In other words, it is bl00dy brilliant!    I can now start to tweak things a bit, but first, it needs a good wash!
