Prace bets now!

The 75 is going for an MOT in the morning.

Sadly, it had to be booked with Nationwide Auto Centres - as they do an
AA discount and it was the only place I could find who can do one on a
Saturday morning.

Odds on it passing.....

Only done a handful of miles since last year - and then dry stored all
winter.

Brakes appear to be working fine and the handbrake is fine, too - as I
had the rear calipers stripped and cleaned last year.

We will see.
