Glad the old POS found a home. Only 4000 miles put on it since 2005 though.

Aaah the Charnwood Meteor, a chair that even my wife likes 

Hell of a lot of outfit for some lucky buyer though...

I didn't know you were disabled, I thought it was just the way you walked.

You aren't fond of the outfit, but I can't remember why Andy, it seemed to fair belt along to the Elefant 2002.

41 mpg, electrics that made it cut out with no warning, six points because it ran like a bag of spanners below 45 mph, a sidecar body that could do passenger or luggage but not both, front suspension/tyre that made it do bar to bar tank slappers, steering loads that required serious upper body strength.....

Basically you'd ride it at 90 mph to get it over with 

My disability (no offence to any one who really is disabled) is that once I get an idea it usually costs a lot. It's mental!

I'm glad it was converted to let someone ride who otherwise couldn't. Makes what I lost on the links etc. seem a little more worthwile than teaching me to KISS.

Interesting, I've never ridden a fat-tyre outfit, but I hear they can be a pain at lower speeds.

I do remember your big fat car tyres being a nightmare on snow.
