Brilliant day, wall to wall blue sky and very warm to boot!

Got my helmet on and drove to Wenvoe in just shorts and T shirt absolutely wonderful. The feeling of 'freedom' is great - just like being on a motrobike.

I started my journey back to Bridgend and when on the M4 the heavens opened!! Thundery rain, you know, those big raindrops. I had to pull into the emrgency lane beneath a bridge to rescue my camcorder fitted between driver and passenger seats and then got on my way again.

If you've ever done paintballing and been hit - well that's how the large drops of rain felt at 70mph I was bloody drenched. Great fun though!

10 minutes later it chucked it down - when I'd reached J36 M$ Sarn Services!

Were you part of the hoon in the area last night? If so, what was all that about?

I thought it seemed a little fragmented! Was seeing Lotus all over the vale Lots of bikers too - do they usually tag along or was that just coincidence?

Good to see.

Do they have a forum as I looked on PH but didn't find snything.

You were not the only one to get caught out yesterday,really had to ease off as driving around in a 4litre v8 with some tunes can be fun in the sun ,but well scary in the rain.
That car of yours must be a bugger to clean or is it just a case of hoseing it from 10 yards ????

I was out in the vale didnt see you though, as Steff said it got a bit fragmented. The bikers were nothing to do with it, There were loads of bikers in the Golden cups (bikers pub) Just like the Blue Anchor on a Wed night.

I wish it was that easy! I have been known to use a Karcher but not a good idea on the Atom as it can force grease from where it should stay. So now I do it by hand.

Have you ever hand washed scaffolding

Is that an offer???

No but the Wedge is pretty labour intensive when it comes to cleaning, the Splitrims and the Leather ,worth it but I wonder how may man hours I will have put into cleaning it compared to driving the thing.
