Just a quick guide on how I do a quick clean of my rear brakes, these tips apply to any brakes once you have the caliper off. Some may do it differently, but this is good for a clean. You don't have to re-lube the piston but it doesn't hurt to help it seat back in and preserve the seals.

    The other thing you can do when you spot a car waiting is get your weave on and attract attention to yourself. A bike approaching a junction perfectly straight presents a small silhouette.

    JGB, It never hurts to repeat safety tips. Although I'm in my mid 70s, I still go out for pleasure rides on my R.E. Meteor 350 in the country lanes of Hampshire (UK). I have an analogy to repeating safety tips and it relates to exercising with weights in the gym.... a friendly instructor spots you doing an exercise with sloppy technique and whispers some advice about posture (etc) in your ear. You already knew what he told you but, being on 'auto-pilot' you had slipped into bad ways. Being advised about technique in the gym can prevent you getting a strained muscle. Safety reminders for riding on two wheels can help minimse the risk of serious injury, or heaven forbid ... worse. (That old saying of 'familiarity breeds contempt' can relate to our two-wheeled adventures too). : - }

    I moved from Bristol to just south of the Brecons 5 years ago. I know those roads well. For anyone thinking of doing them, be aware that the police know them well too! Loads of speed limits in place now, and all they have to do is listen for a race can wailing, so that they can point their camera at the bend you are just about to come howling around.
