In addition to 3 wheel locking nuts for my spare wheel, I've also got a good quality motorcycle chain lock and wheel cover. The key is layers of security.

Why three locking nuts? (PM reply if need be)
The lock idea for the spare is on my list of requirements.

I reckon if you were to weld a bar on the spare wheel carrier in the centre of the 3 wheel support bolts, pointing out thru the spare wheel centre, with a hole for a padlock, that would do the trick.

Tuesday was putting the new clutch in now it had arrived on the campsite plus some archery at Bala

Today was a days greenlaning, Ceiriog Forest, Whitestones, Wayfarers and a couple of other nice little lanes with the Sankey on the back taking mountain bikes for the passengers to do the downhills.

Tomorrow we'll be off near Bets y Coed laning then quad biking in the evening.

Did a final walk around and a poke and prod in preparation for tomorrows MOT.

I'm quietly confident but the old girl does like to throw curve balls!

Wish me (and Her) luck!

fitted a audicator (indicators on alarm , beebs to say indicators been left on after programmed amount of flashes and goes silent when brake pressed )

fitted it as I had it on the shelf removed from motorbike I sold and I was bored

handy to have as a safety thing may help to stop someone pulling out on you if indicators left on by mistake and more so with a silent led flasher unit

if any of you have a bike , I would recommend them
