Spot the person standing at the summit to get an idea of how steep this rocky climb was

I make good progress on the climb……

 

[Noneking]

…..but then drop the bike as I reach the summit Complete spent….. no energy and unable to pick up my bike.

@Just Blip It! and his posse waiting at the top

What makes you think that the Akras on a 990 make a bit of noise?

We awoke to a beautiful sunrise on Day 2, but unfortunately I was not feeling well at all.

It started with a few visits to the loo before breakfast and it only got worse during the rest of the day

Started my bike before breakfast to lube the chain and noticed a big fuel leak. Looked like it was coming from the fuel pump. @Just Blip It! helped and we stripped off the left tank and found no leak at all. We tightened all clamps and checked the quick connection as well. After assembly there was no leak whatsoever

The climb is relentless and picking up bikes starts to take it’s toll again. I have zero energy and the rising temperature is making things really tough.
