A return to Glentress!

 We went for a cycle midweek to Glentress, on the fatbikes for a giggle and to see the new trails recently built, which we had a go on after a ride around the blue route...


It was a damp day and the rails were muddy in places, as expected after such a damp winter but we still had a good laugh!

Hitchcocks Performance camshaft fitting...

 Here is a film fitting the Performance Camshaft sold by Hitchcocks UK for the Royal Enfield Classic 350,

Some helpful tips that make fitting easier after I took onboard comments from other people who had fitted them.

At the time there was only 2 other Youtube films of doing this job, The Hitchcocks UK film, and a really good film by Tiger Ness - Ian mad a brilliant film which I have linked on my film Description 




In the next blog we will see the improvements to the torque of the bike!
