Presume you are at Lake Aviemore? If so, town is Otematata – Māori for “place of good flint”.

Glad for you Colin. You've been lucky to find the umbrellas crossing the track, they landed in your avatar! Keep smiling and make us dream.

I watched The World's Fastest Indian on TV the other day. Really enjoyed it.
I think the record Munro set still stands.

One of the best (real life) stories and films ever. And Anthony Hopkins is excellent as Burt.

All is good - hope you all have a great weekend. Stirling Moss once said when he arrived at Teretonga "what utter desolation" He wasn't far wrong!

Good news/bad news......found the gremlin, dodgy wiring on the master switch hidden high behind the dash. Car going well in practice......until the rear hub broke and the wheel and I parted company. Can't be fixed so that's that. As the song goes 'you picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel.....'

Colin, so sorry to hear that. 'Lady Luck' has not been kind to you on this trip. Hope the R&R has been some compensation...….

Thanks Iain! As soon as I read that, Monty Pythons Lumberjack Song came into my head, and now it wont leave!

It seems like you manned up in the race though.... podium finish and 2nd fastest lap.... good stuff.

That Alex Morton (#75) seems a bit quick!
