I can sympathise with the early start. It's getting too hot to enjoy the hot STs down on the low country.
However, there's a possibility of showers and a storm for Brissie tomorrow, so it might not be too bad.
I read one of our number bound his left header pipe to reduce the baked leg syndrome. I actually bought the bandages to do this, but was advised against it by a Honda mechanic who said the engine is designed to get rid of some heat there, and to contain it might overhead a head, a valve or cause the header to crack or deform.
