How boring must I sound? Banging on about the vehicles. Ok, get it over with. Bill and I picked up the second cub today. It's been sitting in someones driveway for four years, exposed to the elements for the entire time it is caked in rust and ceased bits and bobs. I managed to crack a wing mirror loading it onto the van but this is the least of our worries. On arriving home we had a quick look at the overall state of the bike, apart from the expected cosmetic issues it looked OK. The battery will need charged and a new spark plug is almost definitely required. I kicked it over and it almost started, no fuel though. Will have a play tomorrow and over the weekend.
We have no offloaded most of our big stuff on ebay, kayaks and top box. We will be searching under the stairs and other hidey holes for additional means to generate some income for our trips.
Spoke with Bill on the way to pick up the bike about getting an angle or gimmick for the trip in order to generate interest and revenue for our chosen charity/charities. gain I appeal to anyone who is actually reading this to comment and make some suggestions. We'll see.
