You'll have fun with the Avid,

Always a good feeling to tick a box on your bucket list.

My grandmother was paying the milkman one day and his horse-drawn cart was stopped in the middle of the road.

The horse did a pile of droppings where it stood.

Grandma said to the milko "that's good, i'll pick that up and put in on my rhubarb", to which he replied, "don't fancy that much lady, my wife puts custard on mine"

True story.

Obviously Ian Bent at CAMit sees the effect of it enough to incorporate an oil injector system for use on shutdown. Nev

Had a Morris 1100 fitted with one decades ago, which I thrashed the hell out of as a company rep. It had just over 200,000 miles on it when I got rid of it, and it was still running quite well, which is not bad for a small BMC "A" series engine. No wonder Datsun took on the basic design with a few mods for their 1200.

I did use to change oil and filter more regularly than most though.

I'm a firm believer in it's merit's, especially in colder climates. Most of the ring wear takes place on starting from cold.

An earlier canard ?

Changed my answer in above post when I realized the Piaggio has two fans.

Am I close?

OMAC Laser 300 the first one, I think.

This is clever and should appeal to any of you bikers.

(Something for you to make in your spare time Nev) ?

Thanks OME, already knew that, obviously diterrnt check it before I hit post reply butn.

I give myself for that.

Of course!

He likes to save young women, especially those with technical car problems through his advise columns, apart from chatting to us in his spare time.

The daughter asks her Dad, "Dad there is something that my boyfriend said to me, that I didn't understand.""He said that I have a beautiful chassis, lovely airbags and a fantastic bumper.."

Her Dad said, "You tell your boyfriend that if he opens your bonnet and tries to check your oil with his dipstick"

"I will tighten his nuts so hard that his headlights will pop out and he will start leaking out of his exhaust pipe."

Good luck Andy, hope things work out well for you.

I got that one wrong Red.

I thought it was a KFC 1

The Oaks, I think, not that it has been around there for quite a few years.

Sure looks like a Norseman to me, Canadian? Any clues please so I can get some sleep.

Was it the April 1st edition?

Some of you blokes in Vermont have too much spare time. Was very near you last weekend, should have PM'd you to come and say G'day, but with the weather, I can understand you doing what you do:oh yeah:

Keep it up mate, it beats cutting the grass in the rain.

Kind Regards

Even a model of yours of a recycled beer can would be great to see.

Your models are the envy of so many who do not posses such skills.

Love seeing all this stuff, but still waiting to see an R/C scale model of the Dova Skylark alongside it's big brother..

You'd have to do that Mick! Could make a great photo.

Kind Regards

Planey.

Just don't sit on the machine, and get behind in the orders

I always respect your professional views Dutch and love your input, but I think what Frank is saying is that many still like very basic flying without all the bells and whistles.

I think he accepts that there is an element of risk in the basics which many still like, but it suits some with shallower pockets, who otherwise would be grounded.

Some great flying here. Hope you enjoy it.

:welcome:Good to hear that you are getting back into it, and obviously following your dreams

As well intentioned as the local cop may have been, he probably dosen't have the knowledge that most of us here do

Was on an A320 flight Melb-Syd tonight and I said to my partner, "Hope the PIC is happy with life and getting on well with his partner" It would seem he was thankfully, and we had a great flight.

Pity, things in life are not always the same way.
