Default Rubbish day to do work on the 75

Weather has been pants recently feels like the sun will never arrive. Anyway I persist so New Shannon tube fitted today to replace the original one which had rotted away. Also tooped up screenwash and coolant as is now my daily drive so want to take good care of the old girl! Just hit 59,000 miles this morning. Also had a wash and wax to keep her clean

Yup. We've got a good covering here already. Bah humbug. I'm still trying to get my old girl back on the road. I had to resort to vice grips to release the front brake pipe unions this morning.

Really looking forward to spring now. Had enough of winter.

I shovelled some snow aside yesterday to do some work on my project but I’m afraid it’s inside work today as it’s chucking it down again.

Cleaned the snow off the 75 and put it in the barn to work on unclogging the washer pump, but the snow is melting, leaving big puddles on the barn floor, so I don't feel like taking the wheel off now. On the upside, sold my A4 to a guy who slithered 55miles across Cumbria in a BMW (not good in snow).
