no news on the Audi.... another loan car for @busabeast

I hired a van a few years back, it had a bit of black tape covering the brake warning light! People were also flying past me on the dual carriageway, even though I was doing 70mph! However, when I put my satnav in it I found that an indicated 70mph was actually 50mph, which explained why it seemed slow! But, it was cheap!

About 70 miles.... a friend saw the whole thing when it happen'd....pretty crazy seeing 200+ acres of trees go down like a bunch of toothpicks....in a flash! Whats left of it now....

It is mate and formerly the Stannary Town (capital) of Cornwall. King Mark lived near their in the 6th Century at Castle D'Or (of Tristan and Isolde fame) which is halfway between Fowey and Lostwithiel. Also there is Restormel Castle there and a Bishops Palace too. Very historical and lovely place. King Charles still has a big estate house there. I like Lostwithiel a lot, we used to go their in my teens as they had a Disco and Girlies. In fact I originally started as a Postie their after leaving Uni, so know it pretty well, got many Friends in Lostiwthiel.

Did they take the bulbs out of the warning lights?

No I've got it back and all is good

No enduro bike comes with long service intervals. Having said that if you’re only trail riding then you won’t have to do it as much as you would if you were racing. The KTM 350/500 exc’s are light and powerful, just change the oil every 1000 miles and they will be fine .

If your buying an enduro bike your going to have all the short intervals with it. If you want an enduro bike with road bike service intervals your screwed as there isn't one Seriously though it depends on what type of riding you intend doing. If your just looking at the odd trail to ride when on a country road ride i'd be looking at a KTM690 Husky 701 or the Gas Gas 700 all the same bike, oodles of power and around 7000 mile service intervals but they do have a few teething issues that are easy to sort, probably already done if your buying second hand.

The Calima hit the coast a bit worse than us......

Back from our shopping expedition to Asda ...not as exotic has Baza though.

What do you mean by road work on it, @Six30? You take roadbikes on a van, so get an EXC and drive it to near where you want to ride. Here people ride any WRF or CRF or EXC with average care, and they seem to be ok and pretty much bulletproof. There’s a guy on Sofia’s town that rides a CRF250F to commute locally and it keeps going around.

And what is the best oil?

I broke my collar bone in one of those as a baby the old man crashed it with 5 of us squeezed in i'm sure i mentioned it on here before

No , they just edited the ad blue out with a dongle

In the toilets ............

@Saul I'm just sending an ignition unit off to Lostwithiel . I noticed it's at the top of the Fowey esturary, is that near you ?

Better be the Voge or I'll ban the twat.

You should be over the moon, everything will be ginger.

EUC race in Spain. These things will do 50+ mph (depending on the type ) and are great fun, tho as with anything that's fun except sex in the UK, they are not legal. I got my first EUC in 2015. Back then you could ride about without the danger of being stopped by the rozzers. Sadly not the case now tho I do use mine around the village where I live as the local boys in blue don't seem to care here thankfully. Also good fun off road. My first one was a 500w motor but the current models have 3-4kw, the more power in the motor the less likely you are to over stretch the laws of physics and come off. Lean forward to go and lean back to stop. Racing like this is ideally suited to those who weigh 50lbs wet through, my 100kg would put me at rather a disadvantage.

Good point … I’ll have to get another old van as well

Multi pack at least.

Yes, have a few drinks and hop on something with one wheel that accelerates according to your balance!

Holy shit, never knew about that! For racing that would be the case for everything, maybe the only exception being sailing?

Large packet of crisps then

Oh yes!......but we are no better off for it, rent up £60 per month, and all the others to.....wife worked it out and we will be around £2 per week better off...

Yes but inflation has gone up by 17% and its been backdated 4 years!
