Not much you can do when those gearboxes throw their toys out of the pram, Spyder came back from Le Mans on a low loader after it refused to select anything other than 1st & 2nd

Not a good morning!

GS has thrown a hissy fit with a non-start gearbox error! Awaiting a response from RAC Europe but is suspect it will be repatriation for the car and a sh!tbox for us… There are however worse places to be stranded than the Picos Mountains, absolutely stunning location and at least we are at the hotel. Was looking forward to Logrono tonight, may still make it.
Bugger, that’s unlucky.
Fingers crossed it can be rectified.

Bugger Newton…Hope it is sorted soon…

Good morning all. Hair cut for me and boys at 8 then some food and more importantly wine shopping and that’s it today really.

Morning. Bike first then the garage door and bathroom window are being replaced. It's a rock and roll lifestyle, I tell you!

Morning all, indeed every trick tried, Zep’s magic tool couldn’t clear it so it wasn’t look good from the get go. We are being collected at 09.30 by taxi and onto a car hire place where we will find out what the replacement will be. Apparently we qualify for a class ‘C’ replacement, this could be a BMW One to a Prius! Fingers crossed it isn’t the latter!

Have fun all…

Hope you can enjoy the rest of the trip and have some fun too.

See you soon Newton! Better to have given up in the mountains than in the underground carpark accessed by lift only here in Logrono. I don't think your car could have ever been recovered from the bowels of this place!

At least you’ll be first to the bar now.
