Me n T did 120 miles of pootling, Mayhaps 5 miles of normal road and the rest on single track stuff. Good times.

You're ahead of my pootling total, well done. :good: Nice to get out and away from it all eh.
Decent Pootling - Gdog - 25-04-2021
Seriously jealous guys !! I am really missing bikes and biking now, especially as the suns out and the cafes open(ish), oh well.
Stay Safe you crazy cats
When are we hooking up for a breakfast bap Studders (et Al) ? see what I did there ! LOL
Decent Pootling - Studley Ramrod - 25-04-2021
Next month and we should be good to go Gav. 17th, I think, when plod won't fine anyone for not travelling local to meet up with udders.

If you are only meeting in a group of 6 they won't fine you now, guidance is to minimise travel but not in law.
Decent Pootling - dapleb - 25-04-2021
We didn't stray more than 30miles from HOMD but plenty of bits I hadn't seen before.....or had done and forgot aboot.

Had a decent 60 miles test session on the new one, definitely needs a small screen at high speeds my arms are getting longer
Decent Pootling - dapleb - 25-04-2021
We did an udder 60 today. Again mostly single track. Prolly no more than 20miles from HOMD at any point and found some lubbly roads n voos that were unfamiliar.
Mayhaps pics to follow.

Obviously you stopped for a picnic going by that picÂ
Decent Pootling - dapleb - 25-04-2021
Two stops. One tea stop right there ...and another stop to load a hoss in a trailer what they were doing a terrible job of on a single track road. â.â

Nice photo Daps. :good:
Good job you found the leak when you did eh. It's not the thermostat housing is it ?
Decent Pootling - dapleb - 25-04-2021
It's good...cous T took it n not me. (â·â¿â·)
Nah, termo housing has the mega bracket on it now, it's dryzabone.
I could see a tiny tiny track of water atwix the core of radiator and the side bit. Traced it back ooop to the top left hose attachment area. Have reseated hose but could be small crack or corrosion of outlet..or bad rad!
Decent Pootling - Studley Ramrod - 26-04-2021
Nice photo Tishabelle. :good: Fingers crossed for ya Daps.Â

Cry. ââ¿â
It's possible I have one in stock but not sure. If not I guess it's a hunt around to see what the options are.
Luckily I have the Bentley boys who deal with rotten stuff all the time and will know if it's possible to recore it or not or repair cracked outlet/inlet etc.
My main worry is finding the time to do anything aboot it.

Cheers Studley :-D
A bit of a delayed response there from me! I also discovered the photo sphere option on my phone that day! (Awesome 360° photo) xxxx
Decent Pootling - Studley Ramrod - 20-05-2021
Cool. Seen a few 360 views on google earth and they're mightily impressive. Looking forward to seeing Dappers in 360 mode. lol
Decent Pootling - dapleb - 30-05-2021
Priorities had some realigning and the door painting scheduled for today was replaced with POOTLING! Woohoo.
138miles for me n T. Sticking to backroads to avoid traffic.
Then this happened:
