General Discussion / Re: Hat as a baseboard?

It's not actually running on the track, there are no wheels fitted, so it's obviously just on some rotating mechanism.

I guess (hope) that's using something Powerbase strips under the track and lots of magnets to hold the stock down very firmly.

A slightly different take on What are You Listening to at the Moment.

This is how I like to listen to music in the evenings :

And for the record, the music is by the Matson 2.

@lil chris I always turn off the stop/start but with Qashqais you have to do that every time you start the car.????
I'll find out in June whether I can ride the bike again :worried:
Shame you missed the Preston show. There was no Warrington show last year either. That and the Wigan one are sorely missed :(

Bet your car has stop start technology Mick, @Newportnobby  they reckon that's ok because they fit better rated batteries. But to me who spent nearly all his life in the motor trade, I turn mine off. Perhaps I am synical but are they trying to sell more batteries and starter motors. By the way hope your back is not causing to much discomfort and you can still ride that bike.

Ps sorry I missed the Preston show it would have been nice to see you again, no Wigan meet up's anymore.
