Looking forward to seeing you there tomorrow - although you'll be one Corsaro down I'm aiming to blow the cobwebs off the Veloce and ride that along (having fixed the 'no electrics' problem...)

So, So ??? Enquiring minds need to know what the problem was. My money was on the battery having cooked in the heat.
Nicco - I need one of those rear reflectors as well, currently have a small bicycle stick-on one as a nod to legality...
The electrical failure was down to the main fuse by the relay - it looked good but corrosion had brken the connection - when pulled out one leg just broke away and had to be pulled out with sharp nosed pliers (which, of course, I don't carry). If I'd done a better inspection by the roadside I might have spotted that and been able to get to Cadwell under Morini power...

Very much the same as happened on my GFR a couple of weeks ago. That came apart when I pulled it out, but at least both blades came out. I broke one of the wobbly legs off and bunged it in to the fuse holder to restore albeit slightly risky electrics. Then on the way home I ran out of fuel because I had been fooled by the weird GFR main and reserve tap positions again!
