Blue Smoke and Pedals NZ 2016

Well today I pulled the 100cc Yammy out of the shed, put in the 6V battery, put some petrol in the tank and gave it a few kicks.

It started after about 8 kicks.

Then I noticed that a little pinhole in the fuel tank was leaking.
So I drained the tank and pulled it off the bike and used a bit of 2 pot "liquid metal" to seal up 2 holes actually.

Then I took t for a little 20km spin up the road.
The clutch slips under EXTREME load :-)
But it basically runs fine
Got it up to 60mph downhill in 4th.

So,.. all ready for the Blue Smoke and Pedal event tomorrow at Tamahere near Cambridge NZ.

Also today, the odometer reached 33,333.3miles.
