I'd actually better start sorting my kit out, I've just realised that this is only the month after next and I want to get the whole front end on and off the Kymco for new seals and greasing.

Just need a reasonable Saturday to assess what tent repairs need doing as well, and make up some guy ropes!

The trailer is looking good. Where did you get your parts for it from? May well see you in Thurso and mind it's the Bealach Na Ba or The Pass of the Cattle never the Applecross Pass! :lol:
