    Lovely evening for a drive

    Met up with a few friends and went for a scenic drive around Maidenhead/Henley/Marlow.

    Picture was taken at "Winter Hill"

    I know exactly where that picture was taken!

    That place was a well known place to park at night with a young lady back when I was a lad...

    (quickly to find out there was nothing ladylike about her!)

    Given that it probably weighs, what, 600KG? and those are probably brakes from a ford sierra (common for kit cars), weighing about three times that, they can probably cope!

    Yep, the car weighs 600kg or there abouts, so although only small, they do a pretty good job.

    There are other priorities first...
