Boonie Hound Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Ohhh can you make me a cuppa too. made the mistake of turning down a non-gritted drove/ shortcut I use to go to work. The 4x4 in front of me just stormed off into the distance while I picked my way gingerly. Still left with me a big smile on my face as I pitted my poor driving skills with the elements.

Coose Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 I set off this morning to go to Manchester from 15 miles NE of York. Got to York, turned round and came home (using the handbrake most of the way! 😬). The post office van through a hedge and the 4x4 pickup in front of me doing 20mph made me wonder hy the hell I'd set off in the first place! I haven't heard back from my boss yet after texting him this morning to let him know the score.... hey ho! Glub! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myles Posted February 27, 2004 Author Share Posted February 27, 2004 Well - I did it*! *diff out, suspension apart, brakes dangling, prop out, all back together again (apart from the traditional spare washers left over at the end...) The day wasn't actually all that cold - sun was out for most of the day and the snow had mostly melted. So 6 hours was entirely manageable... However - at 5:30ish just after I'd finished, I thought I'd best take it for a quick run to check it over... I'd been lying in a pool of diff oil (hair was kinda sticky...) - so decided to not wear the helmet (aeroscreening, you see) and just take a pair of shades and ear plugs... The problem with the old prop only came in above 80mph, so I took off gently along a nearby (couple of miles long) bypass... and instantly regretted omitting any thermal/windblocking head protection... Windchill at 5 deg C and 80+mph (or just about *any* mph) is nasty - that was soooo stoopid 😳 - actually, the effective windchill temp is only -4 degC at 85mph - perhaps the ambient was colder after all...
