What Have You Fettled Today?

[Andy in Germany]

Nearly all the garages around here are full of `toot`. We have a car and the bikes in ours ! Others have parking problems, it`s like musical chairs but with cars !

Which means that effectively the local authority is funding most people's storage. A good deal if you have a car.

You are right. Lots of those vehicles are up on the pavements as well. Who polices it ? No one. I have to change the way I leave my house on the bike as very often there is a pickup truck parked right by a junction obscuring my view. It`s bad enough in the car.

"Fettled"... ahem.

You are now the resident Twisted Fire-starter…..

Car and bike in mine, the rest of the vehicles on the driveway

If drivers were charged an annual £1000 supplement for using the road as a storage facility they'd soon stop doing it. Don't buy a cow if you don't have a field!

Lotus Elise would fit perfectly in there

If you stack it sideways it'd save even more space.

Bit of enforced fettling again. When I came back on Friday night something was rubbing. I remembered tonight before the next commute to diagnose what it was. I'd kicked or something the front mudguard so the side wall of the tyre was brushing against it. So I straightened that tonight so the tyre could run smoothly.

My other fettle today was more pleasant. I had cleaned the good bike yesterday so checked the chain (still not 0.5% stretched) and reapplied drip wax.
