At the Mo I know I'm going.... :D Nothing etched in stone
so far for the route etc....might just amble down there on
side roads and stop off in little B and B's enroute... 8-)
Couple of lads from down south going too....

You doing C 2 C in April ? I'm popping over for that one.
Pick up my scoot at Stu's and hoof it up to Saltburn......?

Your builds looking right tasty 8-)

I'd be inclined to create a plastic/rubber cover for the terminal ends of your battery...

Looks awfully close to the frame/panels, and a short on the battery can cause a big mess...

I cant do C2C, gutted, but its cobblesoul a week after :D two of the best rallies IMO :D The ...ahem..boss wont let me do both :(
Were still discussing routes :? at the moment its looking like portsmouth to Caen return Santander to Portsmouth but it depends on the santander ferry time back. We'd like to do the Pyrenees route but dont really want to spend a day on a ferry. So it may be different next week lol

There's not enough black, there are black socket head bolts, black nuts and washers available and they look the dogs hazels. I'm using them on my project.

I like the shiny shocky for contrast, but I think black washers and socket heads (button head preferably) would be ideal for the rack!
