tooSavvy Posted August 8, 2022 Author Posted August 8, 2022 Canny run out today, after pub lunch! Marsden (by Standedge Canal Tunnel) Over and past The Saddleworth Hotel Delph Onto A672, over Saddleworth Moor Elland Birstal Christ on a bike.... Some 1:4 and hairpins!! Really sensed a lengthening brake pedal (constantly in tranny lockdown 😱) and the 'smell of death' wisping up from the discs 😵. When we finally returned to Tesco, to buy a bite for supper, I sizzled my fingers on the front ally spokes..... Gahhhh 😮 🚙💨 Matty, privatewire, Crackers and 1 other 3 1

tooSavvy Posted August 10, 2022 Author Posted August 10, 2022 Had a very relaxed [... and turkey baked] trundle out today. Sowerby Bridge (Tuel Lane lock) & along Calder Valley... Hebden Bridge Todmorden Littleborough Milnrow &M62 back. Y'know... for a guy thrashing his works van from A to B these places, dotted along the valley, will just be ' bloody queues!'..... Taking it more sedately, however, there are old mills [the canal is always by the road] and the railway, commanding a large chunk of the little valley bottom left - massive stone arches forcing themselves into/over the road. Very impressive... Never seen the Pyramids 🤔, "all that history" >> nah, gimmie Industrial Revolution every time.... We have our pyramids 🏆😎 🚙💨 Jim Bell, DSdriver, rainagain and 5 others 8
tooSavvy Posted August 12, 2022 Author Posted August 12, 2022 This is a good spot...... *NOW? Lunch..... 😉 ..... and this, in car park of Fenay Bridge Pub. Jim Bell, Dyslexic Viking, Matty and 2 others 5

tooSavvy Posted August 15, 2022 Author Posted August 15, 2022 Just an 'end of term' report.... 870miles, not a drop of oil used/water/TX pink. Stormed up from Leeds at a truly 'zoomy/throbb/throbb' 68.... Traffic nicely spaced + no jams. MOT due 07/09.. We will find out what that £30 CAT has managed in a year 🤔 👌 .... 🚙💨 AnnoyingPentium and privatewire 2
tooSavvy Posted August 22, 2022 Author Posted August 22, 2022 Strange fact (... I izz cock 😟)...... SuziQ has 'plastic headlights' = the 'amber dimming of death' is becoming visible... FCUK. Not MOT issue *yet. Polishing will be happening 🦸

tooSavvy Posted August 29, 2022 Author Posted August 29, 2022 @Matty.... No, one car at a time (street/permit parking) 😮 Y'know.... For a grand, 2yr no FTP, no rust & having spent about £200 in consumibles+ large hatch/5 door arse end 😵🤔.... There's no way I could get that much of a laugh [yupp....

Exhaust virtually nil = BIG WIN for my £30 cat, last year 🥂 Tracking..???😵 = fronts are feathered Tae Fuck.... Damn 'factory plasti-underseal' flaking grrr... privatewire, DSdriver and AnnoyingPentium 3
tooSavvy Posted September 2, 2022 Author Posted September 2, 2022 Well...... Clean ✔️ *Tyres... However 🧐 ATS can look again @tracking? Seems well dodgy to me, given only driven 15k - even on our apocalyptically bomb holed roads 😟
tooSavvy Posted September 2, 2022 Author Posted September 2, 2022 ATS *argued 20k is max for 'Landsail' brand 🤨 However, as a 'freebie', he will re-check my tracking when fitting my 4 new tyres @£200 all in 👍 privatewire 1
tooSavvy Posted September 2, 2022 Author Posted September 2, 2022 As my alloys will be removed, for tyres on Monday.... I decided to have a go at the brake grime, using the [I believe it is TFR..] stuff I got a while ago. I gave each wheel two doses, around 5min soak. 4/1 water in a spray bottle... ...... Mebbies 10mins next time 🤔 privatewire, rainagain, AnnoyingPentium and 1 other 4
tooSavvy Posted September 3, 2022 Author Posted September 3, 2022 After picking at flaky 'plasti-sill coating' when SuziQ was up on the MOT lift..... I'm popping into Toolstation for some more of this.... Less than £5 a tin and I schooshed some over ToMM© nether regions, looked good and tacky + smearry = spray on and forget (... for another year 😵) 🚙💨 DSdriver, AnnoyingPentium and privatewire 3

tooSavvy Posted September 5, 2022 Author Posted September 5, 2022 NEXEN 175/70-14 tyres.... Not as 'square shouldered' as the Landsail. Tracking was tweaked..... Good good 🚙💨 Landsail below... Vv Vv rob88h, AnnoyingPentium, Dyslexic Viking and 1 other 4
tooSavvy Posted September 13, 2022 Author Posted September 13, 2022 'Real World' tyre opinion.... 🍾🏆 The balance is spot on... I was getting the dreaded 'wrist jiggle'@67 prior = now creams it through to 85 *officer😱 Will see 'wear patterns' over the next 10k but nice enough 👌🚙💨 Liggle, privatewire and AnnoyingPentium 3
