Administrator	I hope Pip Junior is going to bring a spare rear axle with him. It really puts your teeth on edge to hear such mechanically distressing noises for 50+ miles. Fair play for sticking with it, though. Is it the same guest house as last time? I only ask so that even if I do get abandoned in the centre of Tenby again, at least I'll have an idea of what the guest house is called this time. _______________ Electric bikes are great.
