BOING - Spring is sprung

 The weather is improving, slowly...

Not done much recently, apart from a couple of runs to Torque Moto Cafe for lunch a couple of times. A great place, where you can spend ages just staring at the posters and bric-a-brac of racing history while having a very good egg and bacon roll and good coffee:

....and they've got a Scalectrix track on the ceiling:

Also, I decided Zedster2 is a rubbish name so....*fanfare*... meet Barry the Boxster. Yeah, I know but I like it...

I've possibly made a decision about the future of Barry - see my old blog for the details.

Assuming that decision doesn't change (no guarantee), I've got a few things planned so far this year:

Wales trip in May
Beaulieu 'Simply Porsche' day in June

....and hopefully some longer day trips with the Porksters...

A Tale of Two Days

 Popped out on Saturday with the wife (to look at a caravan) and it was monsoon time; non-stop, heavy rain, huge puddles everywhere.

Then Sunday, blue skies, bright sun - beautiful. A bit chilly early on as I went on a little run with my son before meeting with the Porksters at Newlands Corner for a very nice bacon and egg butty:

A decent 14 cars turned up and it was a nice run back as well, luckily managing to avoid traffic (the definition of a good run).

My wheels sold for £520, so almost paid for my new ones, which is good. However, the tramlining is really bad, so much so that I may have to buy new 235 tyres for the front, assuming the 245s are the cause and not the change from 19" to 18".
