I am overjoyed at being mobile again............
« on: 10 December 2008, 17:34:12 »

43 days without the Omega or transport (other than pushbikes)! One big disadvantage of living miles from anywhere.

The recently fixed auto gearbox gave up suddenly on the 29th Oct. Rather than try and repair it I went down the route of getting a good S/H unit.

Many thanks to Matchless, The Boy and Omegatoy for getting it here and to Omegatoy for help in fitting it today. OOF at its very best!

Just been for a ten mile drive. Oh joy, it changes up and down freely and has a lot more go. Can't wait to go for a longer run tomorrow- might even go and have a look at the snow 2750 metres up the Sierra Nevada mountains (above the ski slopes)!

Varche how is the skiing/snowboarding in Sierra Nevada, any good in Feb? We just managed to get some cheap flights to Slovakia, like to do something different every year
