Not a great week!

As reported previously, i had to replace the OSF brake pipes following a hydraulic oil leak.
This was done Tuesday morning, with 2 replacement brake pipes made up at a local spares place (thanks Terry) for just a few quid. Sadly though it rained most of tuesday and it was a right pain getting them fitted. On Wednesday my good friend George came round to help bleed the brakes, only to find the brake caliper loose. After a bit of investigation, we found that 1 caliper securing bolt was completely missing, and the one still there only holding on by a couple of threads. B*gger!

Am now going to get a new (secondhand) OSF hub fitted, but still need to get the brakes bled to be able to drive it! Grrrr.
