Yesterday we had Barbs 3rd fall off the bike, few bruises but ok now.
That's the 3 off them now, Baza was 1st, then Rina and then Barb, obviously not drinking enough vino :-) | |

| Well I agree with Bob it was a bit chilly in the Med today but didn't take long to warm up when we got out in the beautiful sunshine, then later me and Bob chilled out with the Pastis while the ladies polished off a couple of bottles of vino blanco , all in all a very enjoyable day in the sun, enjoyed the bike ride we had earlier even if we got a bit lost | |

Had a great trip with great friends, hope Frank n Marg are still enjoying Benidorm and have a great time, also Pete, Pauline, Mark and Julie are also all OK as they will be nearer home than us by now I think, so see you all soon when we are all back home.

Safe travels you lot, and see you soon.

| Well we got some bad news.
We have been in France for a couple of days and Baza has been noticing a knocking niose from the rear axle, well today it developed into a full breakdown with call out.
Now stuck in a garage near Albi awaiting parts and its holiday time here in France so not looking good for a quick repair to brakes.
We have travelled on a bit too Souillac site and await call from Baza, more when I know. :-( | |

| I have recently serviced my rear brakes with the help of a Fiat manual on CD and they are not Alko manufacture but that of the base vehicle. Should be no problem with parts. Good luck | |
