[stephenh500]

ran out of petrol, due to faulty gauge, and ran out of grip at hartside

sound required

[Kulataz]

I had to stop at Ulswater as I was getting clunking sound from the front. Tightened the wheelnuts and all was OK......oops.

Then stopped after about 100 miles in a garage when someone pointed out my exhaust had come off all three mountings.....it ran the rest of the tour on one strained mount...lol

i also ran out of grip at the same point as well as talent, nearly got a 360 out of it which would have been heroic.... however 270 and a stall was my lot..... no pics tho as my misses had her eyes closed so couldnt point the camera!
