The wheels could easily catch on ruts and spin the steering wheel, breaking said thumbs! :shock: It's a habit that has stuck, and I stil...

Re solo'd but have had to put it on hold for a bit for financial reasons :( Roll on summer indeed .... More wo...

DESIGN HOST

He was a true gent and a real asset to the ranks of the LAA. He died before his time. But I guess when you go, you could do worse than go doing what you love.

RIP
