Hello from the new boy
« on: May 31, 2010, 01:09:14 PM »
For those who remember I got up to Torrance and gave the Tyro a shot. Great fun looing to get back out at another event. I was hoping to go to Drumclog, but school boy error and the landywas bust :'(

On the go now, Lochgilphead forestry goes for miles, take a drive if your up tat way & there is a good wee spot to pitch a tent. Mind te midges- plenty of fire wood to hand.

Where is the Green Road 13th June going to be?

Hi John

There is a mountain bike track in lochgilphead, but the forestry roads are not blocked. Apprently you can get as far as Oban.
So what's for sale in the club shop, I'm sure the misses would appreciate a landy birtday present.

Any ideas to location of the GRR?

Did all the other servicing including fanbelt. And ERR forgot to put fuel in fuel filter.
Got about 15yards and had to push  the landy back into my drive. Tried everthing to bleed it, so I took the fuel pipe off the casting off the engine and guess what, the casting broke on the fitting. Still with old filter,so a wee bit nervous with the new filter (a flung the britpart in the bin)
