Tonight's Hampshire branch AGM so as we usually do we've a few munchies. Easiest way to get it to Kingsworthy is with the trailer.

I had an electrical problem coming home from Club Night, nothing unusual there I hear you say. Things started getting a bit, well, dim.

A Melectrical problem is a more accurate term (a mechanical problem that leads to no electricity). This time my wiring wasn't to blame. The dynomo strap had come loose along with an AWOL long screw. This mashed up my fibre drive gear. Alan to the rescue and lent me one from his spare mag.

I don’t wish to be critical Steve, but there appears to be a pattern emerging of you running out of electricity!

You've had it's best. You're supposed to put a bit of grease on that occasionally, Only on the teeth. Remove the generator and put the bike on a stand in top gear and move the rear wheel slowly.. Nev
