Ride to Box Hill this coming Saturday 23rd May

Post by Wolfie »

Calling all you Surrey / London members..

There's a threat of some good weather this coming weekend, so we're gonna have a ride down to Rykers.
It would be good to meet up with anybody of a similar mindset..

We'll be there about 11:00am..

Hoping to head home on Sunday but I'm under duress to stay....
My neighbours will think I've moved out!

And I don't think I want to be travelling on Monday no matter what...

Well Saturday has just gone west...

I/we seized the H2 on the A24 near Horsham coming back from Worthing this aft.. :roll:

Not being daft or owt, I had urged her on a bit just to pass a coupla cars and rolled off ahead of them..
Another 100yds or so there was that horrible retardation and sinking feeling in the stomach but I hit the choke and rolled off more..

She did run a bit more then the engine completely and definitely stopped... I went down the gears then having almost stopped rolling, let the clutch out again and she picked up, slowly at first but definitely going again and without the usual "after seizure" clatter.

And she kept going, so I poked the choke some more and about a mile later pulled into a layby. I didn't stop the engine even though it felt and sounded normal.
Oil is still covering the window, oil tap on...
Revved nicely, so we set off again, it feels like there's a couple of Horses absent but no rattlier than usual..

That's my week organised when I get home then.. :smt005

Bummer. :cry:

Lets hope you get it sorted and it's not (too) expensive.

Perhaps sir needs more than one triple,for such occasions. Thumbs Up

Bad news Wolfie, hope it is easily and cheaply fixed.
There is no such thing as bad drink, just some better than others.
