Scotland: 1590miles
Well, got back from Scotland, enjoyed the driving, didn’t like the drinking. Don’t really know what else to say i mean like i really really liked the driving, I got from sterling to ballymun(Dublin) to limerick (got lost) and finally to cork in one day and enjoyed it! it was something like 450miles. Didn’t think I would with all the driveing I do during the week. When I got home and could stand again I looked up nick sanders, 19 days to circumnavigate the world? hot shit I could do that! okay maybe not but then I’d be doing it on a 80,000mile old cbr. Sarge didn’t have any nick sanders dvd’s but I got long way around and long way down. Those ejits should have spent there own money and got the KTM’s, personally I’d like a Russian 6×6 or a the tiny two-stroke the camera man was using :D.
Speaking of serious off road machine, looks like the recession is make 4×4’s cheap now, seen a nice nissan pickup for 1700 and a 3ltr daihatsu for 1000. The economy will have picked up again by the time I have my starlet re-engined and NCT’d leaving me with nothing again.
Other news:
Project hardpoints will be moving along soon ,watch this space as they say.
Got a laptop! will be taking the dremel to it 2morrow.
New wheels again for the starlet, nice set of 13″, cars look much lower now and will be cooler then a very cool thing when I finish the suspension.
HOLIDAY PICS HERE
This is a nicer sign then the actual john o groats sign. Did a 250mile round trip on my own to see this while the other two were hung over 😀
Did you think i didn’t have any problems with my bike? HA!
That rads been dead and holed 4 time’s, last time the neck got a little outta shape so it wasn’t really sealing properly, this mod allowed me to see what the water was doing and fill up sooner.
Bashed on that f3 rad i got from JT, fan didn’t fit, bottom pipe needed extending and upper slip on joint was miles out. f3 fan might fit i’ll never know.
Little bracket i made up. Also squeezed in a temp gauge from an nsr80, it lights up red and the speedo light up green. Mismatched monster eyes lookin at ya!
