You’ve noticed – I’ve been getting pretty bored of solo. With no co-drivers and mediocre results my interest has been fading fast. The past four years with the FRS, has been the longest period I have ever spent with one vehicle… So this weekend I was pretty happy for something new… in fact two somethings new.

I make earnest attempts over and over again to escape or revise my 86 life, but it always finds a way to haunt me. When I awake in the middle of the night with cool calm feelings, it is generally because I’ve been turning wrenches on an engine with four shiny stacks on the passenger side, and tall swooping octopus legs […]
