Re: Perfect M5 conditions today

I drove back 250 miles from the northwest last night. It snowed all the way from the M6 at Preston to Stafford. Pretty harsh conditions.

Re: Perfect M5 conditions today

We've had sun all day, but cold and slippery roads. I love the way the M5 tracks, just keep the throttle pinned and steer even if it's nearly sideways. Never ceases to amaze me how forgiving these things are...

Re: Perfect M5 conditions today

After the weather warmed up, I treated the M5 to a wash with my favourite gritty sponge...

Why are your siderepeaters mounted the wrong way?

They were fitted the wrong way round by a bodyshop who painted the front wings to repair stone chips.

I simply couldn't be bothered to swap them over.

That was 30,000 stone-chipping miles ago (10 months) and they're due another painting. I'll fit them the right way when the wings are resprayed again.
