yeh, that looks like Defender without any breaks. Should be a great time ![]()
Strange, I am the opposite, I find them really motivating
I guess the thing for me is I donāt race, Iāve never followed racing and, while I get the thrill for those that do, I am only marginally/minimally motivated by the on road action. I think SYSTM and Sir @Francois-Wahoo do a REMARKABLE job with these but theyāve just never been something that engages me. I just canāt escape the feeling that Iām stuck in my basement with TTBS.
Youāre really selling it, Sir Glen! Glad you went first!
Lol! @DameCristy and, in the spirit of the challenge, as my 30 min recon counted the ride as ādoneā in the awards section, I deleted it from my history so it shows as yet to be completed now. This is future meās problem now.
We really hate on future me sometimesā¦

Yeh, sometimes I feel sorry for that sap.
At my age, I am happy enough that future me still exists.

You donāt know how much this makes me laugh. And I know itās tongue in cheek. But I almost never win anything. Lol.
I can pretty much recount to you all 6 times Iāve won any kind of raffle or prize drawing. 3 of them being this year!
I won a flint & steel set in cub scouts when I was 10.
At a company picnic around 2003 I won 3 prizes, but because I had to leave early for my cousinās wedding (they did the drawings after I left) - and they said you had to be there to win - I didnāt get any of them.
That was the high point of my prize winning career until this year. ![]()
Hero.
