Re: Two wheels good.
I went for a short* rideout today just to check everything was working right post service. 364 miles later I get home having done the Kirkton, Honister, Whinlatter, Hardknott and Wrynose passes in the Lake District. I've even cured the oil weep from the cam cover, so it's 100% success.
Oh & the fool who'd driven down the the 1in3 side of the Hardknott & cooked their brakes on a new car made me chuckle. They were stuffed in the rocks blocking half the road, unable to reverse off the remains of their bumper. No pics as nowhere to stop on that bit of the hill, besides I was chuckling too much at the car almost on it's side off the road where they'd cocked up moving over to let someone get down while avoiding the first idiot...
no one hurt, so it's all good fun. Then I got to the top & some lass has utterly overheated her astray ecotec thingy, it was gurgling so well I thought but didn't mention OMGHGF...

Oh I forgot. Ambleside has an excessive amount of frenchness, I attempted to stop & eat at 4:15pm - a perfectly normal time to eat & the cafe & chippy where both shut.

Re: Two wheels good.
I'm really thinking of taking the trike to glossop Tuesday. Needs a good run out. Mot due soon so I've ordered some sidelight bulbs and holders for in the headlamp bowl. Need to buy a couple of relays and another switch and some reels of wire to fit the rear fog lamp and put a relay into the electric fan circuit. Luckily I've got someone who is decent at wiring to assist with it. The same daft lad that helped with the headlight relays. He did such a good job I've asked him again to assist!

Some one I know. He's a top bloke but don't tell him. I prefer to call him a cunt to his face cos if I'm nice to him he thinks I'm ill

Re: Two wheels good.
I've gone against everything I've said. I've just booked trike in for mot. If it passes I'm still going to carry on with work needed,if it fails then I know what is definitely needed.

Re: Two wheels good.
I went to the self-service tearoom at Halton Gill in the Dales again today. You can't really see it in the pics but I shared the seating area with four house martin chicks, who got fed regularly while I was there.
