This is for the wheel bolts on my T4 van... Somewhere along the way I sprayed all of my wheel bolts with copper grease to stop them being so tight to undo.I now have a torque wrench (so no more guess work) and was going to put my rear wheels back on and realised I didn't have the torque value (which I do now - 1...

Basically I came to a lane earlier as I went into it there was a laminated sign from a trials club saying that the lane was in use on 31st march with permission from the relevant authorities, Which made me think that there was...
Hi All, I don't need it just yet but might soonish, it farts when I get on it occasionally (no oil weeping) and not me farting, I haven't felt it bottoming out at all and did wonder if it was my seat but if I push the rack / back end it does make a slightly windy whisper So roughly what pennies might I be lookin...

I have had a bad right shoulder for many years - think it was from an old taikwondo pad training injury (Was holding a kic...
A couple of weeks ago myself and RichT4 ventured over for some adventurous trail riding in Austria, Slovenia, Hungary and Croatia.

I had a conversation with PC Wallace this afternoon, he is planning to try and intercept riders that are apparently riding on Mutters Moor and East Hill Strips mainly on Sunday afternoons. If the word can be passed around to let riders know they are likely to get there collars felt if they are found dev...
