hehe sounds good.

No I didn't! My one seems to be holding up amazing what a bit of tape'll do. I rivetted my headlight bowl back together today and forced in the light so it looks like I have something somewhere near road legal. Took it for a ride, generally not too bad, my heated gloves aren't as warm as I hoped they would be but I suppose I didn't give them a proper test .

If they didn't warm up in 20 miles what makes you think they will after 40?

Cause I came back freezing hands then took the switch out of circuit and went for a 5 minute circuit and they felt warm. might have just been a bad connection to the switch or faulty switch. I'll find oot tomoz

I went out for a short ride yesterday. It ended up being a 150 mile jaunt around the Trough of Bowland and surrounding areas. Gentle (for me anyway) bimble speed and managed to find a Girth too!

Not cold, bit slippy, lots of gravel on the roads, virtually no other traffic, happy days all in all!
