A days stay at a site near Warwick costs £38.00 including leccy, toilets/showers etc for two people.
An on the day ticket to Warwick Castle is £39.00 per person.
Something is out of kilter.
Finally got round to sorting the bike support situation out for the different dimensions of the Kalkhoff and the Carerra’s. There are now two sets of supports now, and two support rods.
The seat pillars on the Carerra’s are 32mm diameter and the pillar on the Kalkhoff is 28mm diameter and I am using locking plastic clamps instead of the spring metal clips, here is the double support rod with the spring clips
Here is the same rod with the 32mm plastic clips
Here is the single rod for the Kalkhoff, note the clip is black because its a 28mm diameter
The set up is absolutely rigid now, no worrying about braking cornering and speed bumps
The new clock is in the Moho, probably won’t need it through the summer months.
Testing the throw on those dual servos is a nightmare if they aren’t synced. I messed up a gear set once doing that. Definitely make sure they aren’t fighting each other before you close the wing.
Blimey eliot88, long time since having to consider that one, three large planes still in the boxes in the loft.
Van day today, test run on the new restraint.
I watch a lot of Cycling Youtube vids around the midlands (especially the canal network) and am checking out the range on the Carerra to see what can be done without having to turn a pedal if I choose not to. I stopped the trail at 30 miles yesterday to check the battery capacity and it was showing 66% full still
There are four blue bars out of six on the display above the word speed, that would suggest the range is ninety miles so I might attempt the Grand Union Loop and record it for Youtube
Well, talk about over engineering, the bike support did a champion job on the way to the Country Park, the locking clip was great, trouble was I could not get to unlock so the bike stayed in situ 
What a Plonker, I was trying to open the clip on the hinge side, things can only get better, lets go again today 
Happy that the range is a comfortable 60 miles so, giving the battery its first juice, full steam down the green corridor.
No Probs today got the catch side to the right, straight out at the country Park
Came across an old friend in a village about five miles away, I did know of its presence but didn’t photo it before. I have had the Beamer since 2015 and before that had an MG for a couple of years so, I would have owned this around 2009-2012 ish.
I bought it of a well to do couple from the affluent Hale Barns area, it was the wife’s car and was in well worth the journey being in superb condition.
I sold this to a specialist on the Wirral I think, so, its strange to think its languishing in a village 5 miles away. It now has the optional hard top on and a set of after market wheels, its an old girl now so its best to remember her as a young filly
Went for a long track ride at the campsite on the Kalkhoff over the weekend, its not like when I was young, I would go for miles confident I could find my way back, nowadays I am more cautious. I had a bike computer a year or so ago but the screen was so small, I could not see the navigation map so I sold it. I have just bought the biggest one available at the moment its called a Wahoo Ace, its about as big as a smartphone, should do the trick, battery has a 30 hour charge life.
Just about to spray the awning channel we bought for the Moho, I brush painted it but was not satisfied with the finish and some blobs of paint made it into the channel itself. I have inserted some electrical sleeving into the channel to stop the spray going in there.
The Hammerite paint won’t adhere direct to bare aluminium so the rail has to be acid etched primed first.
what does it “hoo”
Tells me where I am hopefully, unlike car sat navs, these know tracks and cut throughs!
So it could tell you which garden your in
Well, I won’t need a bell, the lady talks to you like the one in the car
Had the clutch done on the workhorse yesterday by a clutch specialist, checked google on possible labor time and was informed 4-5 hours. dropped the car off at 8.45am, called at 10.15am to pick it up, I quizzed how come so fast, they said they have been doing these for 30 years and the two guys work on one vehicle at a time, so, that’s the cambelt done and the clutch, lets hope she keeps going until I decide to stop.
