Sorry again, guys, but snow here is a once in every ten year thing -
although I think it has happened twice in the past six years. But I
would hardly call it snow even though I managed a few photos of white
stuff on the ground.
It generally lasts a few hours if we are lucky and then it is gone for
another few years.
As I may have mentioned more than a few times before, my 'B is now
semi-permanently topless since I fitted the 'officially approved'
rollbar. The bar must be 60mm (hmm a couple of inches?) above the top
of my helmet when I am 'strapped in' (that is bolt upright), and so with
the height and the diagonal back braces blocking the operation of the
midfold top frame, it is no roof for me.
I am looking at putting some 'racing' seats in the car (I have stock low
back seats now and my neck aches after a race) which would sit me down
lower, but the rollbar is in there now so the $400 investment stays and
the roof remains in storage.
Thank god for little rain. And to answer the oft put question... "but
what happens when it rains" I have my stock answer... "I get wet":-)
