I also left after the cancelled parade as I didn't fancy pitching a tent in the down pour! The rain going north was the worst I have seen had the window open for a while until a car passed as we were negotiating a lake on the M1 and dumped half of the lake through the window had a couple of moments aquaplaning on the A46 888R's come with a warning that they are not good in water - now I know why!
As I pulled into my local shell garage the engine died- out of fuel- perfet timing, but I now know the main tank holds 43 litres.
I think somthing got wet on the way back (other than me) as the engine didn't seem to be firing on all cylinders, so deciden not to risk the drive back until further investigation..
Thanks for organising a great day
Cheers neil
